    It's a little bit confusing since there are two threads about this catalogue.
    I already posted the link to the online version a few weeks ago in the other thread:

    They are offering free shipping on most stuff until Dec 24, so that might be worth a look online. I ordered about $50 worth of rubber parts and had to pay only $3 for insurance. Pretty good deal. Everything is on back order, of course, so we'll see.

    I just FINALLY got my actual printed catalog yesterday. It's actually pretty nice and promising looking. The don't have the photo of the '69 upholstery in the printing but it is on the website...though it looks like it doesn't have the buttons? The later model pictures in the printed version does...and what's the difference between original and custom interior?
    Anyway, I'm pretty impressed with the amount of interior stuff available for the '69, including weather stripping. It's not totally complete but much more than I've seen anywhere else. If only they had the rear console light lens...

    Anyone else get thiers?

    From what I have been told NOBODY supplied square buttons. My upholsterer had to reuse mine and dye them when they stitched my new seat covers.

    If OPG offers the upgraded interior with the square buttons I'll be very surprised (and pleased!).

    I don't recall if I ordered a catalog but I guess I should call them and ask for one.

    I have to say that Im very surprised with what they have available. The upholstery kits and door panels really blew me away. Not too bad. I will have to eat my words. I said it was going to suck.

    I think the 69 seat kit looks pretty good without the buttons. I bet not a single average person would know they were missing. Plus, if you dont install them with the metal backing plate that goes under the vinyl, they hook onto the belt loop of your pants. :mad:

    I still have a box of square buttons in my basement :Brow:

    Would an upholstery shop be able to take my original buttons and the OPGI seat set and integrate them in? Or do they really need to be made together?
    They didn't have door panels for the '69s, maybe someday. Though I have my originals plus some decent salvaged ones and either aren't really in too bad of shape.

    I just ordered a few things for the 68 from them. I figured I would throw them some business. There was no shipping, just a 3.95 handling charge. a Couple things were a little more than CARS, but it more than evened out with the free shipping. Its still good to price around though. Being so close to CARS, I can usualy get my order in a day or two.

    Dale, that trunk cardboard kit has been out for a while. I bought a set about a year or two ago for the 69. Its nice. I had to trim it just a little to fit exaclty. Its basic black. The originals had some gray coloring to match the carpet threads. I forget who makes them. Im pretty sure its "Repops".

    All in all a nice piece. As you know, most of the originals are really torn up where the jack goes through. Mine was anyway. You dont know how ugly those old cardboards are till you put them up next to the new ones.

    Im interested to know whos doing the seats for them. Maybe it will be like a Chevelle catalong in a few years. Who know. If you told me 10 years ago there would be this much repro stuff for the 66-70's, I would of never believed it.
