Wanted: 69 Camaro parchment headrests and interior

[L78M22Rag]

I'm helping my nephew restore the interior of his project 69 Camaro. The car has a loooong way to go, but I'd like him to be able to drive it for his grad in May.... can you blame him?

Here's how the interior looks now! I'd like to buy any original driver-quality white houndstooth parts that I can get my hands on... door panels, wind-lace and window trim, dash pad, black plastic or comfort grip steering wheel, seatbelts, etc. The headrests are beyond repair and the seats are being re-covered. I've never seen seats worn to this state... the previous redneck owner just pulled a white t-shirt over the driver's seat and drove the car as is!
Other than the trashed interior, the car is a very solid driver. Thanks for any help!!!

Here's how the rest of the car looks so far... It'll look great with its white vinyl top and new interior!



Yes, that's my other nephew's Camaro beside it.... ok, I'm a bad influence.

Can't help ya with a thing, but just wanted to say that's the most hashed complete original interior I think I've ever seen!

Even Mice don't want to move into it. It looks like it has a painted roof but it also looks like I see a vinyl top seam. What am I looking at ? Cool color, interior combo.

You're right! Amazingly enough... mice were not the problem!

Its an original garnet red with white vinyl top combo. You're looking at the original paint under the vinyl top (recently removed)... the rest of the paint was repainted a long time ago but badly faded and worn down to the primer.

You're right Max, I stand corrected.... I meant Ivory Houndstooth not parchment. I must have been thinking about the 68 Camaro I used to own with parchment interior. Thanks!
WRT your interior... I'm all over that buddy

That must have been fun to drive in!

It looks a LOT better without the interior... very clean rust-free floors!
