I always thought if I bought a 70 T/A it would have a black interior. Now I have one that's got a blue interior and I can't really imagine having anything else. It's just right for that car. Likewise, I always thought theses cars had to have a console. Now I have one without a console and I love the look. No more consoles for me. Go figure.
Thank you for the kind words. Lucerne blue, Martinique blue for 78 and Vibrant blue for 81 are in the same family. Close but a shade or two different. I love them all. For me, the 2nd gen T/A body style in blue is a perfect match. I do like other colors as well.

A white 70 T/A with a blue interior is a good match. I think it compliments and works well with the blue stripes.

I recently saw a 74 T/A without a console... automatic with a column shift. Not too many of those around.
