1984 pininrarina interior colors

Post by dfcar1 »

I am in the process of redoing the interior for my 1984 Pininfarina with tan interior. I plan to redye the interior. Everything is so faded it is hard to determine original colors. I am using the front panels covering the heater box which the closest I come to is Palamino from SEM paints. I have used Sem before and they can be mixed at a paint store. What I am wondering is if all the interior panel where the same color or if the center console and door panels match the seats which are tan, or the darker palamino color:

I have owned earlier up to 82 spiders and they were a lighter tan all through. Did the pininfarinas come in the lighter tan also?
Anyone know what the differences are in the Pininfarina door panels. I don't have a good set of door panels and wondering hoe the Spider panels are different.

My baby blue shell is coming back from the body shop tomorrow, maybe I can post some pics:)

Yes, please - post pix.

My '84 interior colors are all over the map. The carpet is definitely darker than the vinyl, and the seats are leather front panels and vinyl that wraps sides and back. It's hard to tell what's what, because the car sat out and faded over the years before I found it.
Here's a clickable link photo that shows the beat-up seats as lightest, with center console , and darker side and door panels, and carpet the darkest:

Yeah mine has about 3 different colors. I am going to match the darker colors on the plastic panels under the dash. The vinyl fades alot more than the plastic
