Re: IML: 1959 interior colors - YES - WE HAVE THEM!!!

["david carpenter" <zirc@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you for posting this interior trim color book. My 59 Crown was 
rehoplostered ten years ago and it looks great but it is not the correct 
materials. My steering wheel
hub appears to have the original green leather. Would this be the same 
material as the seats? Does anyone know a
good source for repro material? Thank you, David
