    Thanks Marco, Stephen here. Is my interior white or off-white? I'm trying to get interior pieces, and my interior is in varying degrees of deterioration.
    It's a 72 Custom Convt., 350-2, AC, split bench, 8-track with power steering and drums all around. 108K original miles (I believe) I paid $500 for it in '91 thanks to someone's nagging wife, ; )~
    Have new brakes, drums all around, timing chain, shocks.
    Need alot, but frame is solid and has little rust. I have about 3K in it.
    (Neighbor has a nice Roadmaster LTD like Dad's in the background)

    Thanks for your help.

    Stephen

    Stratomist blue/white is a great color combo. Count your lucky stars on that aspect.

    Stephen,
    All 72 intreriors were off white.
    69-71's were pearl white
    68's were pure white.
    Hope this helps.

    Thanks for the replies, Guys!
    No wonder OPG and Year One only have off-white for the 72 interiors, duh.
    Anyone happy with their seats and door panels from either of these places?
