Back on the 67. I get distracted to shiny new things like a teenager
 I painted the center dash carrier along with dying the dash pads. I reinstalled the dash pads today along with the windshield trim. In all, I'm pretty happy with the color match.  Between yesterday and today, some more parts came in. The one item that really suffers in roadsters is the interior, including the gauges. The temp gauge and tachometer colors really fade back. I sourced an NOS temp gauge, a restored tachometer, and got the clock back from Clock Works. Once I have the cluster apart, I can determine if I need to paint the needles. I'll also see how the gauge cluster carrier cleans up and determine if it needs to be painted. Not as easy as the survivor cars

Way late to the party about the carpet with plastic backing. My experience with dealing directly with AAC for the carpet in my Chevelle was, they were very willing to work with a person to get what they wanted and may well be willing to leave that backing off for future people looking for that option.
As far as I know, the Dark Copper color carpet I have in my '66 was never offered by Chevrolet and possibly not any GM car, but ACC makes these on site and offer ANY of their available colors to be pressed and cut to the vehicle it is intended for. Always worth a call to inquire about modifications...
