Couple '65 questions (pics)

Just got to see my new f-85 for the second time since I purchased it.
Here's a few picts and a couple of questions.
1. The car came with 1 front bench and 2 rear.
Are these all '65 seats? One set of front and back don't match.
(and if anyone knows where to get this fabric, please let me know!)



2. I thought these rocket emblems in the dash were red and not blue?


The rest are kinda just to see if anything looks incorrect to anyone.
Just checking for year and option stuff. This is a '65 F-85 V8.

Get rid of the chevy wheels.

edit; Sorry, realized that my posted read like a smart aleck. But, after seeing the cool pictures and the neat stuff in the trunk, then seeing the wheels in the last picture that thought just popped into my mind so really it's a compliment. Nice find.

No worries!
The chevy rims are killing me.

Yeah, a set of plain steel wheels like the spare will
be my first order of business.
(and I'll be loosing that scoop too!)

find yourself some nice little dog dish hubcaps with a rocket on them. I owned a '76 Omega that had some really nice ones. Then mount some nice blackwall out tires and you are just screaming muscle (in my opinon).
