Interior decorator... eat your heart out!

While I'm not exactly ready to place my order for the Heritage interior just yet, I figured I needed to at least narrow down the colors.

Sue and I are looking through online pictures, comparing the swatches and guessing what the car looks like when she said we really need the car to do this...

Fortunately, I had two (2) hoods painted when the car was done and one of them was in the basement (Healey is currently in a neighbor's garage across the condo's drive).

Sue acting completely at home with Healey parts in the bed:

Looking very nice Randy. Not that you asked, but I like the tan color. Right hand, fourth from the left. At least it looks good in the photo. Actually, the sheets match too. Maybe you should use the spare hood as a head board. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif

Well dah, no brainer. Just kidding (?)

The steering wheel appears to be tan, I'd match that.

But then, what do I know?

Gosh, gee whiz, I hope I helped you to decide.

If you could find a vinyl color that matches your exterior color (easily done), one color combo I love is black leather with red piping. My BJ8 has a Heritage navy leather interior with contrasting lt.blue piping. There's something about the contrasting piping that just appeals to my eye. Red with biscuit interior is a pretty color combo too. Whatever you decide I'm sure it'll be wonderful.
Really beautiful car Randy.
