carpet color
« on: March 21, 2013, 01:14:20 PM »
Can anyone tell me how many colors of red carpet were offered of the 65GS? I ordered new carpet which I thought was correct but it wasnt. I ordered 02 RED and I think I need 13 MAROON. My trim tag is 157B. Just want to make sure I order the right none this time.

Thanks,

JT

The carpet should be more of a maroon color , not a bright red.
The first '65 Skylark I was doing so happened to be one of those "little old lady " cars. It was a low mile car, but suffered from MN winters and an engine fire. The interior was in unbelievable condition and needed nothing other then a cleaning. When it received a Senior award and a score of 400 points, the interior was all original and still is. The carpet color is a deep blood red / maroon color.

I think you need #31 in the Legendary catalog. They sell ACC carpet.

it is surely Maroon color carpet. Even I did the same mistake earlier but is there any spay which can used to change carpet color at home?
