I had Lebaron and Bonney do the interior for my 55 Tudor to original specs. My interior called for white vinyl with brown cloth with copper fleck. Surprisingly the backs of the seat were covered in a salmon pink colour. So maybe the factory covered the backs of the seats in a different colour to keep the interior cleaner. The door cards are interesting as well. They are black white and brown in the pattern shown in the ford parts manual. Lebaron do seem to use a a real thick vinyl material which should wear well. I don't know how my cloth will hang in by comparison
By the time the kit landed here in Oz it wasn't cheap but the quality was great.

The foam on the cushion is about gone and too many tears in the vinyl to put back on,the drivers backrest has a couple broken springs and came through the front and back making a few holes so the front seat will be reupholstered first and the rear seat will get done later.

Geez, compared to the upholstery in my '55 Fairlane yours look brand new. Mine are (were) fabric maybe it doesn't wear as well.

I got the samples in the mail from LeBaron Bonney so as soon as I figure out how much of each color I need I will order the material and get busy with the front seat first then when I get bored will do the rear seat. My 55 has a strange interior as it has four colors instead of three,its a very late 55 that was built in august and it looks to be the last mountain green 55 built at the Louisville plant as it has some light blue in the interior along with the matching green and white so they ran out of the green and substituted light blue to get it out the door. Since my dad bought it new its going back the way it came from the factory even though they put a wrong color in the interior.
