Was making an odds and ends things the Barracuda needs and noticed the seat hinge covers need replacing. Interior and Seats are green, covers and carpet black. Shouldn’t the covers be the same color as the seat not the carpet? Just looks kinda strange with green seat and black hinge cover...
 
Pretty sure they should match the seat upholstery. Herb's Parts has a line of interior paints so you can change the color of your existing ones instead of trying to find nice green ones.

Black carpets with green seats and interior.... Your car wouldn't happen to be a 4 speed, would it?
 
No automatic. Did you lose one?
No, but here is a pic of the original interior in my 69 Dart. Blue with black carpets. I thought that it was a factory error, until I was told by a reliable source that the 4 speed cars came with black carpets.

Did not know that - just thought factory carpet a different color than interior must be special order.
 
Not sure on the years, but my old '66 Barracuda four speed did not have black carpet originally.
