TT1 - "avocado green metallic"
S6N - SPORT vinyl bucket seat interior - "gold & black" (GTX hardtop ONLY)

cool to see the uncommon color combination restored properly!!

Is that seat pattern correct?? Legendary had a '68 "gold & black" bucket seat on display at MATS with a different scheme.

I wish I took a picture, but the raised panels were black (the light blue sections in this pic*) - the remainder gold

* stolen from Hamtramck-Historical

I like the combo because it's different and rare. And yes...the finish line is sweet. No more parts to either order or restore and your wallet can finally issue a sigh of relief! Nice car.

EXACTLY. MUCH better than another rare color scheme changed to resale red and swapped to a black interior (yawn!) ....and they say restored cars are boring!

Is it really an odd combo?

Green and tan is not odd. This is pretty much the same thing.

And if I'm correct, Barry's site with the original dealer album bears this out:

I agree that the appearance is similar to green and tan and it looks good, but I don't ever recall seeing the same color combo before. Just 'cause it was recommended or available doesn't mean buyers ordered that many of them. My understanding is that production numbers for combinations of options like interior and exterior colors aren't available.

But uncommon doesn't constitute "odd."

I really like this car. Like you said, too bad there's no info on colors or trim combos.

You might want to paint that motor Turquoise before you install it
(hopefully it's not too late )

Ah, I get what you're saying, I guess I was equating rare and odd.
