Upholstery question



Dear Greg and Russell,

Yours is a very good question - one I have no answer
to.  But one I would like to know.

My suspicions are that it was always black.  I only
say that because that is the only color I have ever
seen on a Mopar, and black is also good at visually
minimizing the appearance of the empty top well and
top mechanics visible through the back window.  A
light color would only highlight it.

Eager to see your car,
 
Chris H.

60 NY T&C
66 Crown Convertible (with black well)
66 LeBaron
