1970 Charger CRT5 interior carpet color

1970 Charger CRT5 interior carpet color - 10/02/16 07:17 PM

We are working on a very cool 1970 Charger RT SE that has CRT5 interior code. Does anyone know what color the carpet would be? It is an automatic. ACC shows either a Dark brown or a Med saddle carpet available in 1970 but does not specify which would be correct for this car.
The car itself is FY1 with a white top, 440 4 BBL, AC, cruise, PW, luggage rack, hood pins, performance hood paint, and factory sunroof!
This car will be unveiled at the 2016 MCACN show in November.
Thanks for any help! Mark

Perhaps you should contact Dave Walden at ECS Automotive for correct color application and or a ship flat ACC carpet if your going OEM

T5 is listed as Saddle Tan in the trim code book. Here are a couple photos from the net:

Talked to Tom over there, they do not have a breakdown for specific carpet color related to interior color.I do not have the original carpet to compare samples to either.
Anyone have a Charger with this interior color that may have an answer?

The '70 parts book calls it "tan". IMO, "tan" would not be dark brown, so that leaves the saddle one.


"440 4 BBL, AC, cruise, PW, luggage rack, hood pins, performance hood paint, and factory sunroof"... Great car!

Looks like the correct carpet color is Dark saddle. Owner brought in pieces of the original console carpet to match up. The interior is called saddle but the seat covers are called brown in Legendary catalog and most all of the other parts(headliner, package tray) are darker than saddle tan.
Thanks for the help offered!
