Interior Questions

[Frank C.]

I'm working on the interior of my '67 3000 MkIII and would appreciate some help. I've got a Healey Blue car with blue interior. The seats are original and in good shape so I'm just putting new foam in them but the carpeting (non-original) is shot and someone had covered over the door panels with an odd color blue material. Ok now the questions:
1. It looks like Moss wants over to $600 for replacement door panels. Any good alternatives for me to look at?
2. I know that all Healey dashboards are black but what about the kick panels on both the driver and passenger side? Mine are black but I'm not sure if I want to have them match the rest of the blue interior.
3. A similar question to #2 on the door top rails. Moss only lists one and I assume it's black. Mine have been redone in blue and I'd like to keep them that way but I'm just curious.
4. Finally, the carpet. I have samples coming from Heritage Trim but are there any other sources I should look at?

Thanks in advance for any and all the help!

FordHealey,

Thanks for the input. I ordered new foam from Moss and have some information coming from Heritage. I am still curious about the side panels ... Moss' description is no good and I'm not sure what I get with the order. I think I'll talk to Heritage, they seem helpful.

Thanks again ...

Frank

just dug out my old HERITAGE catalogue.
they sell panels and panel covers. they
will send samples of their vinyl and carpet.
it's a sampler with small pieces of every
type an color. worth getting
