carpet color for leather interior 68 Firebird
Which color code should be ordered for a replacement carpet on a 68 Firebird with code 281 leather saddle interior ?
I look on Firebird Central 's website which I know sells ACC and they offer medium saddle and gold as well... Frank. |

Late 68 had a custom leather option. No repro carpets are the correct color for that interior, all are too light.

I don’t have one but have seen the documentation and photos of original cars. The interiors of these 68 leather cars appear to use the 69 Firebird mustard gold color for the interior color.

I have this same issue with my 68 firebird. What color did you end up going with? I am looking at Medium Saddle from Ames Performance as the closest match. Just checking one last time before I order. Thanks, DLH

I had a chance to buy a white 68 with that interior a few years back out of Detroit still regret letting that one get away.
