Hi,

I am having some work done on my 1968 Mustang, body/paint right now,
but upholstery in a few months. I did the decoder thing, and also
contacted Ford and was sent a list of what's in my Mustang...I believe
the seat upholstery that's in there now is wrong so I want to put the
correct upholstery in there. I have looked up "Aqua All Vinyl Luxury
Bucket Seat" on the internet (and many variations), is Deluxe Interior
the same thing? What exactly is Interior Decor Group, Protection
Group and Convenience Group? =]

This is what Ford sent me.
1968 model year
San Jose Plant
2 Dr Hardtop
302 8cyl

Gulfstream Aqua Exterior Color
Aqua All Vinyl Luxury Bucket Seat
XP Type Automatic Transmission
3.00 Non-Locking Rear Axle
F70x14 wide oval wsw tires
interior decor group
front seat headrests
protection group
power steering
console
convenience group
speed control
selectaire conditioner
am radio
optional battery
wire wheel covers

Is there anyone out there that has a car that is similar? Mine also
has the turn signal lights on the hood, map lights, disc brakes, 4bbl
carb, it had a vinyl top (white) also. Please just post to the
newsgroup, email above doesn't really exist.

thanks!

Hi,
I have no clue what you found on the internet about the Interior Decor
Group.

We make Mustang upholstery but not in the color you need.

Deluxe interior on a 68 has comforweave inserts and sierra grain parts.
Standard upholstery has kiwi grain insert and sierra grain parts.

Your only choices for interior is Distinctive Industries and TMI. I would
personally want TMI in my car.

We don't sell either one so try a nearby aftermarket dealer.

I just looked at TMI's catalog and they dont even make deluxe upholstery in
turquoise. So odds are you have standard.

Good Luck

Actually it was from Ford (detroit archive library)

Hmmm, it's not comfortweave interior...and it's not standard either...

My problem seems to be this, no one knows =/

No, it's luxury interor, straight from Ford, Well, possibly they
don't make the interior anymore? I'm not sure but eventually I'll
find out who has the answers for me =] thanks anyway...
