Is this an original interior?

I am hoping you can help me with this - I can't belive this is really a stock interior, let me know your thoughts...



It is in just too perfect of condition to be original (circa 1980), the headliner is perfect and glossy, It just doesn't make sence...

Let me see if I can find an old ad I have. Those kind of look like the recaro seats that were offered.

'79 & '80s have weird color and pattern combinations compared to the FBs, especially '79s from what I've seen.

That vinyl does look awfully shiny though, but that cloth insert pattern says Eighties all the way to me.

Interesting... Some say yes, some say no. Guess I should have made this into a Poll ... LOL.
I just don't know what to think, the interior cloth and vinyl just look great! BTW, Mabii, they aint for sale ! The part I'm not telling you about is the four inch tear in the passenger seat. This si why I want to know if they are original, so I can either get the cloth to repair it, or buy a new seat.
So, if anyone has some of this fabric laying around, (lmao!) let me know!

Well, Heres The Skinny.

i do have those seats. they are actually in my car. a little dingy and a lot faded. but same design. except for one thing. the red trim on the outside. mine is black. so either it was a differnt option on a different color car, or they were redone the same with the red trim. none the less they are some real nice looking seats so take good care of them.
