I've been trying to make progress on all the odds and ends. Going through boxes of parts and trying to clean and restore as much as possible. I actually forgot about a lot of stuff I picked up over the last few years.
Received some carpet samples from Legendary and other vendors. Apparently, Legendary uses Saddle color carpet (#26) with '70 Sandalwood. I think the color looks too orangey, and a bit jarring next to the Sandalwood vinyl and paint samples. Light/medium saddle (#27) might work better. Dark Gold and Parchment actually seem to match best, but quite different from factory I suspect.

Looking great!
"Orangey" for carpet on a '70 Sandalwood interior is correct. But it does clash a bit with non-orangey exterior colors. And I'd be surprised if any of the repro carpet colors are actually the correct shade. Regardless, I would go with what looks best to you.
