Want to install new Pearl White seat covers and door panels. Is there a specific seat belt color that is supposed to match the Pearl White, or were the seat belts designed to match the exterior color? Thanks, Kurt
Thanks, What about the steering column and wheel. My car is going to be red, I already bought a red 3 spoke GS wheel. Also, what about the shifter console base color, I believe I have seen colored console bases. I am building a 1971 GS clone.
Hi, I have a pearl interior. My steering column and steering wheel are black along with my seat belts.
Yeah, that sounds like a nice look. Are all 70-72 GS pearl white interiors black belts, wheel, column, and console? I have a red GS 3 spoke wheel, and could have sworn I have seen a saddle 70-72 console, were colored steering wheels, steering columns and consoles only in Skylarks maybe?
All of your parts should be black. Red was never used on any Skylark/GS in 70-72. The steering wheel should be black as well as the console and column. Only cars with saddle interiors used saddle consoles. Never used with the pearl. Whatever you do I would not use the red steering wheel or people who know these cars will pick that right out and you will get sick of listening to them.
Dave, you're funny, thats probably the best advice I've gotten so far! Black, black, black, black................... I think I got it! Thanx
No problem, it is amazing what little things people pick out. I hate giving them anything too obvious.
Lets see some interior pics! Awesome! Beautiful car!! Thats a nice angle shot to show the interior component colors. Anybody else got a shot like that? I would love to see more shots like that, 60s cars or 70s cars. Thanx!
am i correct that in the 70 buick pearl interiors, that the headliner was also white? i know for a fact that the 70 chevelles with pearl interiors had black headliners.
white int I have a 68 2dr Ht Skylark Custom. W/ white int. & buckets , White headliner. Black , belts , sholder straps , column , wheel & console all stock. The car is brown with tan vinal top. Hope this helps.
Thanks. What about the visor retainer/ rear view mirror mount? The one I have now is tan, will I need a black one of these as well, or a Pearl one?
If you had white or pearl with the type 1 storage console, the console would be white. If anyone doesn't know, the console was found on manual shifted and auto on the column cars with buckets.. PS- Bill, had that SAME interior on a 68 GS400 but with a type 1 storage console. Green, black top white bucket interior w/ optional headrests...God, I miss that car ou: :ball:
visor retainer On my 68 the mirror mount is white. the mounts for the pivot point are crome. On a 68 you do not have a inboard pin that attaches to the mirror mount , all that suports the visor is the pivot point.
