Hi, yes of course I forgot you are standard!
Our herringbone is a deluxe interior of course. My car is dark green and I have an original correct to the cars actual identity beige deluxe interior, even though I 'standardised' my car to look non-deluxe (if this makes sense? :shock: :lol: )
Coming up with original standard interior & doorcards was impossible for a split. I looked hard but didnt find even after a few years of looking.
For me it was definitely original old smelly & stained! over 'new retrim', and definitely not tmi, which is a definite NONO in a split or early oval as the vinyl is just SO totally wrong!
I mentioned the beige interior only as it is at least half right, (could just use the seats) cheap and beige in a green car is good looking.
When I first bought my split with no interior, I bought a beige herringbone oval interior just as a temporary measure until I found a 50 one, as I knew it would take a few years to turn one up. I never needed to fit it though and in the end sold it to Martyn Gartland and its now in that beautiful oval! again, probably just until he finds a better and more correct one for his car.
Have you seen Keith Viponds 55 standard sunroof yet? It looks exactly like yours but dark blue! Its one of my absolute favorite cars ever because it is so unusual!
I would love to see yours and his parked up together at Stanford Hall!
