Does anyone know if factory convertible boots always came with the piping detail (eg. white)? I am wondering if this is something that only early Ghia's had or was common from 56-74.

My '66 did not have piping

but who's to say that's the original cover....but it does look old enough to be so.

That's interesting to know. The reason i ask is that i have a NOS boot with the white piping and was curious to know if it would have been stock for my 68.
