67 Question

[Mustang Jim]

A friend of mine just bought a 67 convertible that's in pretty decent shape. He's planning on restomodding it, but he wants to keep the interior stock and will replace the worn upholstry. The seats look white, but I could not find that color from any of the vendors out there. Is the color really parchment, or do they just not reproduce white upholstry? Any thoughts?

Thanks

Does it have the door tag on it? You should be able to tell from it.

a history 999 report from ford is available for most of the 67 production year.

dont know about the options available but I know there are multiple web sites that have that info if you google it.

They did not make white in '67 or '68. The color is parchment.

Your friend could do one of two things. He could get parchment covers and have 'em dyed white or check out

They will do a custome color seatcover, but they do not sell direct. Contact them for the nearest dealer

It's parchment unless it was some kind of special factory deal (check data plate) or a custom job later. My guess is that it's parchment, perhaps faded/bleached a little over the years. Check the color low on the seats beside the driveshaft hump and see if there's not a variation in shades.
