Gator, I don't know which one will match your car, but, I bet if you call or write Hampton Coach with your information that they will be glad to advise you which one goes and also send you some samples so you can see what you need. They worked with me to get the correct set for my 51 Belair.

Gator, there are two '32 cabriolets now in my shop being restored. One of them is mine: Body O 481, Trim 19, Paint 96. The other one belongs to Jay Hertz: Body O 342, Tim 19, Paint 95. The parts book I have describes the upholstery materials and lists part numbers but does not say what trim numbers they are for. I have a '31 cabriolet that once belonged to Duane Steele, a VCCA president in the seventies. He told me the correct material is tan spanish grain leather. He restored this car using leather on seats and door panels, but told me the panels were originally artificial leather. He used leather on the panels so all the colors would match. I would bet it's the same for '32.

Gee whiz, JunkYardDogJunkYardDog, thanks a lot

tan is one color (light brown), teal is a different color (blue-green).

Is the top 1 color on the top and another inside?

or is brown and blue-green mixed together? ugh......that is ugly!

In this case teal refers to the type of fabric not the color. Teal is a type of weave of a canvas type product.

Thank you ChevyChip, that makes some sense.

You never know when a dog is going to pull your leg. ;\)

Hampton answered back and I will get something from them soon. They should know what is right for the car, shouldn't they?

Correct. Tan is the color (tan with a greenish tint) and teal is the type of material. Thus Tan Teal! \:D \:D \:D
