New to the forum.
I have an 1962 series 62 convertible.
It is painted Maize
Does anyone have a picture of what the original carpet color was?
I know what i have currently is not original.
Thanks.

What is the TRIM code on the body tag?

The carpet on the door bottoms should match carpet. Were they replaced?

Yes it was replaced.
I will look at the tag tomorrow.
I am reupholstering the seats, want to do the carpet while it is apart.

Trim code 26 is Sandalwood Leather, dash and carpets. Exterior paint code 96 is Eldorado color Pinehurst Green metallic- standard on Eldorado convertible; optional on other models at extra cost.

This should give a reasonably close idea of what a Sandalwood interior looks like.
