Did you look in Fusick's catalog? I have some nice OEM Style repro's in mine that say "Oldsmobile" on them. They were a gift, but I think that is where they came from.

Fusick has them in black, colors for 1973 and up.
Anybody have the pre- '73 mats in colors?
The '71 dealer installed accessory list shows black, blue, brown, gold, and green mats were available then, don't know about '68, my old red interior '68 goat had red mats though.
I want one piece full width blue rubber mats for the front and rear.
They had the cool clear vinyl ones impregnated with gold metalflakes at the parts stores back then, had french cubism, 50's spaceships, compass points and starbursts all over them.
The full width station wagon mudflaps/air brakes were cool too, had to have static strips hanging off and bike reflectors on them to be the utmost in ultimintness.

The rubber OEM-style repros have been in black only for the past 15 years or so. I want to say that they were reproduced in some colors in the late 80s/early 90s. I have had factory sets in green, blue, brown (fawn) and dark saddle before but they are getting tough to find, especially the fronts. I've seen red NOS rear ones on Ebay recently too.





I'd pay handsomely for nice set of dark saddle '72 mats like these....

Floor Mats

Hey Gearhead I had 2 69 Cutlasses in my time and they both had blue interiors and both had real cool thick blue mats that said Oldsmobile molded into them so I am sure your car came with the same kind just the correct color of the interior. Good luck I am sure they are getting real hard to find these days but if it was a Camaro you would be able to buy everything for it and cheap too, but being an Olds guy I am sure your use to it by now LOL

Black repos that say "Oldsmobile" are all I can find and the quality is C+ [not from Fusicks]

My 69 W30 car has a gold interior. It also still has the original rubber gold front and rear mats in it.

If you need pictures let me know.

Cheers,

Sam

I bought reproductions back in the 80s and they were perfect. They still look like new. I needed black so it was no problem. I don't recall if they were available in any other color at that time but if they were it was probably a limited selection. I should look back at my old JWOs...
