Re the dash colours

 

If I was going to change the interior colours I would first check the Data Plate to see what the vehicles original interior trim and body colour was. If you are going to change the original interior colour scheme then does it really matter what colour you decide the dash to be? I have seen the dash colour of a number of Imps changed to suit the body colour. It was common to see red or black or white convertibles  with red or black dash's. If you decide that the interior is going to be red because the body is black then mail me off list as I have some pics of Imps with that colour scheme and you will see what the finished colours will look like.

 

I may be stating the obvious here but have a thorough look through all the 1961 info on the club site. There is a ton of info there.  http://www.imperialclub.com/Yr/1961/index.htm

 

I believe the carpet was a long cut loop and I am looking for this myself. Of all the places that state they can supply the correct carpet none of them can supply the correct length of the pile. It is very hard to get. I too would be interested in finding a supplier of the correct carpet. I will probably find it in some obscure little old carpet place  in the outback somewhere.

Subject: IML: 1961 LeBaron interior

Hello Imperialfriend!

I  just buy me a 61 LeBaron with leatherinterior. All interior is very bad and I must do somethíng about it. The car had white leatherseats and I don´t like this color. What I understand is leatherseats an option that year and you could choose about three colors,white,red and black. I have dicide that the interior should be red because the car is black outside.

What I need to know is about the dachboard.Is that always black if the interior is in leather or had you other choise?

Where can I find carpet in exatly materials to this car?

thanks.
