It seems we guys with gold interiors just don't get any respect. No headliner, floor mats, correct package trays...
This is a '67 GTO. Anyone run into these issues? Particulary the headliner, do you just get a white one and have it dyed? And the repro rubber floor mats, can those be dyed as well? Seems like they would be good for a while, then due to normal use the color would wear off. I really like the look of those factory mats. thanks! |

Yep, I have the same issue. Not enough gold to make it look correct. I have a Gold on Gold but I am thinking I am going to convert to black interior.

Ran into the same problem with my 67 gto. It has a gold interior and I looked for a correct headliner for three years. I found a company that has the exact material about 3 months ago. I cant remember the name, I will get it for you when I get home. They did an awsome job.

Finally found it. SMS Auto Fabrics in portland OR. PH#503-234-1175. They are a little slow but it is worth the wait. My gold headliner was a dead on match to the original one. Sorry it took so long to find it.

That's a great tip. I did a Google search and they have a website. http://www.smsautofabrics.com/aboutsms.htm
I have the same problem with Turquoise. Ames sells some turquoise that seems a little light.

Used SMS for my 69 gold firebird. Interior parts were dead on...... No complaints at all.

Wow, thanks for the great info! I called SMS and spoke with Charlie who states he has the material in stock. $35/ yard, probably need about 4 yards he says. A local upholsterer here can send the material out and get a headliner made for about $100. So a little pricier than just buying a color like black off the shelf, but good to know it can be done correctly.
Now about those tan (gold) rubber floor mats... |

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
