1967 blue deluxe interior - 6B
« on: November 08, 2021, 05:45:45 AM »
Does any please have pictures of interior in this color? I trying to figure out what parts should be in dark blue color. There are many pictures of interiors in blue out there but most of them is the Aqua. Anyone can help? Thank you!

From the unrestored picture section: 67, right color, but standard.  For the 6B interior decor option, colors are the same for the most part.  The plastic seat backs and lower side pieces are dark.

Thank you guys! So you think the rear trim in dark blue on this one is not correct? https://www.beverlyhillscarclub.com/galleria_images/11481/11481_p20_l.jpg

I've seen several unrestored cars and that upper trim is always the same lighter shade as the lower part.  I have one myself, and all of that is lighter.  Mine is Dec 1966 San Jose

Everything else I can see in the pic looks correct.

Now I see ruppstang posted also one with dark blue rear trim. Are you talking about Blue deluxe - 6B?

To me it would make sense that the rear panels are in dark blue as it matches with the roof console nicely - https://www.beverlyhillscarclub.com/galleria_images/11481/11481_p21_l.jpg

My 6B is all lighter.  I've never seen the upper as dark, personally.

Please remember that car was a 68 when if was the practice for rear upper fastback trim to be a darker tone of the interior color for some unknown reason. Also for the links you provided we don't know when and where that example was built so we don't know if your comparing "apples to apples"  We see all to often differences in plants or production periods. 67 being the one year with the most differences.

gsxr_11 Suggest you provide when and where your car was built so that we can give you better more focused answers. Might want to consider adding it to your signature so that its included in every post and you don't have to answer that question over and over

Thanks can work with that information

First of you and others that will view this thread I first looked at any non-"black" fastback interiors and found all of the examples had matching fastback sail/upper rear and cornet panels as well as the molding matching the lower and other painted surfaces To share the production period spread, I offer  the following representing pretty much the full year

7R10159x
7R1067xx
7R12887x
7R1355xx
7R1518xx
7R15854x
7R17577x
7R18710x
7R19214x
7R19536x
7R19894x
7R2039xx
7R2256xx

As for specifically blue interiors The four examples below represent cars built before and after your car. Difference in tone/tint is due to the lighting, how exposed the interior has been over the years as well as camera and monitor settings

Thank you! I actually wished the dark blue is correct as for some reason I like it more  :)
