Re: 1969 300 deluxe 2 dr post
Hi Don , I'm lucky that I have the original rear panels in there now. SMC got back to me and there sending the fabric samples for the seats out this week. I didn't know that they did the door panels as well. I'll have to chek the SS door panels on there now and see if I could use them for the frames. You guys have all been so much help. Don I don't know if you know Len Dempsey in Victoria, but he has a 69 300 deluxe , butternut car , all original except maybe the seats,but he seems to think those are the originals. I looked at the car last spring and he gave me Keith's name as well as someone to talk to . Now his seats looked so different than yours and now even Keiths are a little different. Don what's your trim code ? Keiths , Lens and mine are all the same, trim code 752. Thx Bob

Re: 1969 300 deluxe 2 dr post
Yes that was the car Ken Seggie had back in the spring. The car is originally from the Moncton N.B. area and from 1985 until 2006 was owned by a guy who lived 1/2 hr from where I grew up in the Maritimes.

Re: 1969 300 deluxe 2 dr post
Bob,
Only 3 colors and two different patterns were available for the base line 300 Deluxe interior. Black cloth Black vinyl Blue cloth Green cloth The black cloth being the rarest. Dan.

Re: 1969 300 deluxe 2 dr post
OK Bob, you really want to test this old guy's brain
I believe that Yellow car in BC used to be in Ontario and I think Keith and I saw it at the Oshawa Autofest years ago. Unfortunately there is very little information available on interior codes for the 69 300's. A few of my source books are way out in left field and don't even show the correct code numbers. One source I have appears to be the most accurate that I've seen and I'll give you the breakdown below. I have never seen a full 69 Dealer Album which might help us here. Black seems to be very well defined: 751 - Cloth. 752 - Vinyl. Blue is a bit of a mystery. I have seen Blue in both Cloth and Vinyl. My source gives the wording for Blue as "both" while the Black above has the wording "seggregated" for each (does that make sense?). Seems to be the same Blue code for both - 760. Green also appears to be well defined: 786 - Cloth. Mine is 752 by the way. Also, the seat stripes can be a bit confusing as well. I believe all the vinyl covers got them, while I've seen cloth covers with and without them. Perhaps it is due to some having new covers made and they either included or removed the stripes The next three posts will have pictures of three different Blue interiors lending more confusion.

Re: 1969 300 deluxe 2 dr post
Here is a picture of Blue Cloth. Can't say if it is the correct material. Notice no stripes.

Re: 1969 300 deluxe 2 dr post
Here is another Blue interior. Don't know if this is in fact vinyl or cloth. In any event, it is not the correct pattern for either. This one has stripes.

Re: 1969 300 deluxe 2 dr post
Although the picture is small, this one has the same vinyl fabric as mine in Blue. It also has stripes.

Re: 1969 300 deluxe 2 dr post
I may have to correct myself in regards to picture two above. I just looked at a picture of Greg Cullum's interior and, although Black, it appears to have the same fabric design as that Blue one.
Dan - is Greg's interior cloth or vinyl? Appears to be cloth.

Re: 1969 300 deluxe 2 dr post
I have a May 1981 Chevelle-Monte Carlo Parts catalogue #P014.
Series 133-134, Models 27-37-69 757 (US trim only) black vinyl trim 752 black vinyl trim 751 black cloth and vinyl 760 blue cloth and vinyl 786 medium green cloth and vinyl 133-134 series 35-36-46-80 (US imports) 752 black vinyl 761 blue vinyl 773 saddle vinyl It appears from this that the all vinyl 300 Deluxe interior only came in black in the 27,37 and 69 models. Clear as mud?

Re: 1969 300 deluxe 2 dr post
Don,
Picture #1 is incorrect. Picture #2 is correct. I`m very famialer with this 300 Deluxe. I grew up with this car in my neighborhood. This car started the whole 300 Deluxe frenzy. As mr70...would say..."It`s good to see old friends"..."I havn`t seen her since June of 2005, when she was last for sale in Indiana." She now lives in Florida. Picture #3 appears correct....however I would need your eye glass`s to be for sure Blue is only cloth Green is only cloth Don if you say you have seen both vinyl and cloth for both blue and green...then I would say that they were refitted, and not originals. Both of my cars are Blue cloth and Green cloth. All front and rear seats had the famous stripes. Black vinyl or cloth got the white stipes, blue got blue stipes and green got green stripes. Don...Greg`s Yellow Post Sedan has the Black cloth...very rare. Keith, "It appears from this that the all vinyl 300 Deluxe interior only came in black in the 27,37 and 69 models." This statement is incorrect. Dan.
