Carpet for 56 Olds Holiday Coupe
Hi,
I'm in the process of restoring a 56 Olds Holiday Coupe, and I'm trying to figure out which carpet the car was originally built with. According to Auto Custom Carpets the original colors were as follows:
01 BLACK
02 RED
05 AQUA
08 DARK GREEN
19 FAWN SANDALWOOD
However, the color of the carpet I pulled from the vehicle more closely resembles custom color 10 BROWN, which does not appear to be in the original color list (see attached photo, far left sample).
I believe the carpet is original. Is it possible that the original owner special ordered the brown carpet? If so, should I order one of the original 5 colors?
Just trying to keep her as close to original as possible since she is a survivor with only 50k miles.
Thanks in advance.
George
