Anyone have a 68 with original teal interior? Don't know what shade the original carpet was but have two choices. A blue grey color or a much darker blue. Both would work, but I'd like to use what is closest to the original color. Vendors don't agree on which color is correct.
Thanks.

I don't have an original teal interior, but I do have color & trim samples in a 1968 dealer album. :D The blue/gray color is probably what you need. Hope the pic will help you.

Thanks for the info. I did find the correct teal seat vinyl material,from SMS Auto Fabrics. I will probably install the blue grey carpet (called silver mink) and not the dark blue (called Dark Teal) because it goes better with the teal seats. Both are made by the same manufacturer. Because Chevy put together some interesting color choices, I'd still would like to find out which one Chevy used because it could have been either one. Anyone happen to have an original carpet sample color chart? (If it exists)
Thanks again...
