Fiat tans??

[cjc]

Hi Guys-

I have a 81 with Blue interior that I'm looking to change to tan. I see aftermarket stuff and pieces pulled form old cars with two (maybe three) different shades of tan, beige, taupe)\ I have picked up the lower and upper consoles , arm rests and backseat quarters and they are all slightly different. think the quarters are mid seventies because they are more tinted toward a yellow tan. I like the darker tan...

Doeas anyone know the exact years the color variations where used?

I'd like to settle on one color and go from there! I may go with procar rally seats so that could dictate the pallet too...
If you look at IAP, the dash will be from 78-82, the door 82-85 etc. so no consistant years etc.
thanks for any help

I have an 85 with tan interior. It has several different shades of tan. My guess is they all started as the same shade but over the years they aged differently, since some are vinyl, some plastic, some leather. I really would like to get them all back to the same shade. I figure at some point I am going to replace the seats, then I will paint everything to match the seats.
