Jim,

The carpet color is what was provided to me when I ordered the interior kit per the trim tag info - right or wrong I don't know. The original carpet was fairly trashed and I threw it away years ago, so I had nothing to compare to. Way back then, I was going to install a black interior anyway (actually purchased all of it as well), so I didn't care about the OEM carpet color. Glad I changed my mind to install the factory color interior instead. The two tone interior adds contrast, and I've only seen one other vehicle over all these years with this ext/int color combination.

The current exhaust system matched what was on the car when I first got it, which is how I learned about the staggered exit pipes. Unfortunately I threw all that stuff away in the 90's, but wish I didn't. The "exhaust" guys probably know all this info already anyway...

Since you like pictures, here are a few earlier door progress shots. Both doors have original glass, regulators, etc. The windows roll up and down like butter. The doors close so easily you have to be careful not to slam them.... Once again, having something good to start with really makes a huge difference.
