For a 32 Four Door Special Sedan. Hampton Coach offers a Bedford Cord, or Mohair for the seats. What would have come in the car originally? Did you have a choice? Is one suppose to be fancier than the other?

Thanks Guys!!

What is the trim number that is on your Fisher Body cowl plate? That number determines what upholstery was in your car originally.

Trim Number 17 is plain Taupe (tan) mohair.

Was that the nicest interior, or was there a fancier one?

Thanks

The Special Sedan came in one other interior and that was Trim Number 18....Plain Tan Whipcord Bedford Cloth. It wasn't as rich looking as the tan mohair used in Trim Number 17.

Thanks JunkYardDogJunkYardDog. I thought the Mohair looked thicker in the samples. More plush!

Thanks

Yep, you got it! The mohair is way better looking, and that is what your car had originally.
