Yeah, I decoded the body tag before I bought it. I thought it had potential to be a good car. Right after I bought it, I applied for the PHS documentation. But they emailed me back a few days after and said the car was not archived from the factory so they couldn't help. I am looking at redoing the interior and hope to find the build sheet under the back seat. I don't believe the material that is on it now would have come from the factory.

259 trim is Black custom interior. Pic looks white?
The Paint code looks like '1' which is special paint. Could be a Spring color which there were a few that year for 68.


Too bad PHS didn't have anything on it.

The interior is black. It just has a sun fade on the driver's side. I was curious about the material. I thought it was supposed to be vinyl and it's more of a felt. Same with the headliner

Seats would have been morrokide vinyl on the outskirts , and perforated comfortweave in the center.
Sorry about the PHS , it happens very rarely.

Check on top of gas tank too , for a Bsheet .
With the seats already re-done before probably not much chance of finding one in the seats.

I just got the correct Upholstery in yesterday. So I will be fixing that. I just had a 400 motor and th400 transmission rebuilt to go into it. I'm going to run an EFI system in the car so I'm buying a gas tank with a built in fuel pump. The gas tank will be coming out. So I'm hopeful, looking between the 2 places, that I can find something

While looking for something for our 68, I stumbled across this youtube channel, he is restoring an autumn bronze 68. It's a beautiful color you should consider painting yours. He has a lot of how to videos, you can learn alot from this guy, especially if you bought a project that was disassembled by someone else.
