Hi there...

I bought this 1964 anthracite beetle some weeks ago, and I wanna know if my seats are correct (originals) or not... (yep, I know the door panels are not)

sorry about the crappy pics, hope you get the Idea...

according to my chassis number (5848518) and the Paint/upholstery info on thesamba the correct material is 70 Gray Cord Pattern, but researching I found nothing, any pic of this pattern would help Wink

none of your seat covers or door panels are correct. the good news is that the horn push bar is 64 and 65.

thanks for the feedback, now all I need is a pic of the correct interior(seat covers and door panels) to look for compatible materials, if someone has an untouched interior please post it... Wink

DAMN!! I searched for over an hour and could not find it. What were your search terms?

I take it that this pattern is not available? Anyone know a source?

64 seat
If you search the site as I was doing, Himmels service and possibly Lenny Copp might be good sources. type 3 had this pattern also, IRRC
