I forgot I picked up this original 1965 Ford and Rotunda accessories book a couple of years ago.  Appears the colors available for 65 were red, white, black, blue, and palomino:

Thanks Chris.  I appreciate your help in confirming and answering my questions.  It's nice seeing it documented on paper.

Matt, my seatbelts are palomino (or tan). I found 1 pic on my phone (I'm at work) that barely shows the seatbelt. Also shows the dark brown floor mats I was talking about earlier in the post.

Thanks Russ.  My mats are not that dark they are more Palomino in color and more closely match my carpet.

Russ, NP, they are reproductions obviously.  I bought them in 2010 from NPD under p/n: RM-D.  Scott Drake has them here: http://www.drakeautomotivegroup.com/Store/Product/C5ZZ-6513086-BN.aspx?wid=141

I just received a set of the DRAKE reproductions in BLACK I purchased from Va. Classic Mustang, they seemed to have a better price. I checked their website AND NPD's site as well, neither listed the BROWN color.
I imagine since both vendors are SCOTT DRAKE  retailers, you might be able to have a set of BROWN drop-shipped directly to you since obviously, they are (or they were at a time) available. I'd give one or both vendors a call and check on price/availability (incl. shipping) if it were me. I'd also have a short list of other things needed if it helps out on shipping quotes too  ;)

Thanks to both of you for that. I looked last night and only found the tan ones on Year Ones site. I haven't bought anything from them in 15 years. NPD and VA Classic are my go-tos so I will call them and see what I can find out. Strangely I didn't see the DARK BROWN ones that I have listed anywhere either.
