I have the same interior in my car. I need to find the correct color interior paint to spray the door panels and trim. The original owner sprayed everything with rustoleum leather brown and it's hideous.

Seeing what it's supposed to look like makes me realize how bad it looks.

I tried looking for spray paint also, but no luck, might have to get it done by someone else????
But still searching for seat covers first.
Did you get your seat covers replaced? If yes where?

thanks
Johnny

My seat covers are original and in great shape. The car was stored in a climate controlled garage since new. I think this has helped preserve the stitching in the seats?

I've talked to the guys at Legendary Interiors. They told me there's a company in their area who will mix interior colors to match. If I can't find someone local who can do it I'm going to contact them for details.

I tried several places to find the right tan interior paint (including samples from Herb's and SEM) but had no luck.  So a couple weeks ago, I went to my local paint shop and had them scan the back side of one of my original interior panels.  At first they said they didn't think it would scan correctly but to their surprise, they were able to get a good scan.  We placed a dab of the mix on the panel and the matched looked really good to me but I'll get a better feel once I've painted an entire panel.  I plan to do that this weekend.

SMS auto fabrics was the only company that can make me the seat covers, the bad part being in Canada, our dollar sucks and will cost me a lot???

As for paint, I found Year One makes can color match paint interior....but shipping to me is like double the price..... :swear:

I had my local paint store color match one of my panels. I am in the process of cleaning and prepping the panels getting ready to paint. I'll post pictures when I'm done.

Just finished the interior upgrade on the Challenger. Here's a few of the results


I think it looks ALOT better than what it did when I bought the car.

That looks nice.  I had the same interior in my 70 challenger.  I fixed it up in the early 80's and it was hard to get the color back then.

Hopefully the picture comes out.  First time trying it from my tablet.
