Hi all, I've got a question that has nothing to do with my Custom's 292. My interior is pretty much toast. I've installed a new carpet, and I want to get the seats, headliner and trim redone. I'm not sure if the Custom's interior pieces are the same dimensions as the Fairlane's. My upholsterer wasn't sure either. I really appreciate any information on the subject. Thanks in advance! Jack

Some pieces may interchange, but I suspect others won't because the Fairlane series wheelbase is 3"s longer. Also Customs series interiors were not the same materials as Fairlanes in most cases..

,The front seats will interchange but the Fairlane 500 seat has a dip in the backrest, the rear seat will not interchange. Side panels are Custom and Custom 300 only.

Thanks Paul and Lou, I appreciate the info very much! I've got the original door panels and they have wear and tear from the last 60 years, (July 8th, 1958). I want to keep the car with as many original parts as possible, so I intend to clean and patch them as nice as they'll get and reinstall them.. Jack
