69 barracuda red interior?

[hosehead]

Does anyone have a 69 w/ red interior? I would love to see any pics for reference. Alot of different shades of red going on in there....:-D

The factory service manual has the paint codes for all the painted interior surfaces.

I hear ya 340s, just trying to dye all the plastic parts....kick panels, pillar moldings, even the repop dash pads arent the correct red....:cheers:

Mine is a '67 but I had Legendary make my covers in the '67
pattern, but do them in the '69 color

Hope this helps

Thanks Tony, (your car rules by the way), I think 69 is pretty unique as far as red interior goes. My car has all original(and very faded) interior and the pieces are all different colors. Maroon colored dash frame, lighter pillar moldings, bright red seats, door panels and carpet. Weird red console, etc. Ill be experimenting w/ some sem vinyl dye stuff I got at the paint shop yesterday. Thanks guys.!!

Thanks hose!

I think all of the different materials is what causes the different shades
of red. I'm guessing that there were different shades even when the
car was new.

Color match, fit and finish, production tolerances were all very crude (by todays standards) when these cars were new.

A car like your black 67 is far nicer than a brand new one ever was.

I think it would be kinda neat to have a brand new '67 or whatever year
to compare to what we have now. I guess a trip to the Nats to see a survivor
is in order.

Tony,ya big showoff,lol. That red really pops! We are lucky here as one of our members (cudadriver) has a "68 survivor in real nice condition.Get to see it at a lot of the shows each year. 8)

thats whay I did today. Bought dash paint from mopaints, bought sem rattle can vinyl dye matched to the inside of the kick panels, pillar moldings,etc. Just thought I'd like to see a finished one. Gonna look interesting though. My factory seat hinge covers, etc are pretty dark maroon and yet the seats, dash pad etc. are bright red. Thanks guys!
