I never see anything match. Door panels, Seats, Door handle bases and pads, kick panels, Dash, head liner etc. Not in 717 medium blue anyway. I think because they are all different material make-up and texture.
Some are smoothish plastic, some are rough plastic, then vinyl etc. Then you add years of aging and it's over doneso. The only time it all matches very close is when you buy aftermarket.
Our VINS are about 9,000 apart? D

Thanks Danny, I kinda figured. This is why I like original cars.
Our vins are more in the range of 8300 or so apart. Your guess was dang good.
The selling dealer of my car (Nickey Chevrolet) told the owner that he is on the edge of getting his order filled/processed and would he be ok with a 69. So I guess this was bumping up against the end.

Hey Danny, had a question based on your info you posted that only 2147 cars built in July.
If my car is a 7C and yours is a 7E, why is my VIN 8300 or so before yours????
Wont be the first time I get something wrong. If what you are saying is true, my car should have been a June car? Confused. My block is cast F 17 8 by the way, and again assembled 10 days before yours (as said earlier).
