Does anybody have pictures available (or know where to find them) of the rear interior for a '68 Cutlass Supreme? The car I bought had virtually no interior, and I am finding some differences between the '70 parts I have and the '68 parts (rear seat widths, etc...). A few pictures of the rear inner quarters, sail trim, and seats would go a long way towards clearing this up for me.

 

This car belongs to a friend of mine. I can forward your contact info to him if you need more. He's on ROP but I don't know if he's here. If I remember correctly this was a low mileage C/S that he got from a little old lady in the Chicago area a few years ago.

edit: I just checked and he is a member here.

 

Not to hi-Jack this, but perhaps add-on, are these a rear armrest to a 68 only and I'm guessing here...a 4-door? THanks

 

The Supreme has different armrest's than 442, cutlass S. The seat may be narrower too. I can't remember for sure.

 

That upholstery pattern appears to be Cutlass "S" and not Cutlass Supreme in that picture. The side panel seems to be Supreme and the fact it has a sail panel courtesy light would indicate it is a Supreme. Also, just to note, Supremes had extra long front door armrests and long backing plates behind them. Supremes had the full rear armrests like in the picture, while "S" models had the small screw on armrests. Supremes had the centre fold down armrest and carpeting on the kick panels. I don't know if the Supreme rear bottom seat was narrower than the "S" car as a result of the different armrest styles. If need be, I can look up in my parts book.

 

The white interior car may have been reupholstered. If the owner sees this post he may chime in. The black interior is from a 442 that I stole the pic from e-bay for comparison.

 

Ah, I see Allyolds68 jumped in while I was writing. I was referring to the white interior in the first picture. The second picture, is all Cutlass "S" which was the basis for the 442. Note the different style arm rests. Hopefully, someone will show a Cutlass Supreme interior, although you may have had your question answered concerning the armrest styles. I believe by 1970, Cutlass "S" adopted the Cutlass Supreme style rear armrests.

 

Page 13 has a front bench seat. I'm sure the back seat is similar. Page 5 has the front bucket seat pattern

Wow, great responses so far guys. Those pictures and explanations are helping clear up some confusion. My only experience is with my old '70 Cutlass Supreme. I want to source/buy the correct parts to complete the interior but don't even know what I am looking for. For example, until recently I believed that the rear seats for 68-72 would interchange. However, I compared my old '70 seat bottom to the '68 that came with the car and the '70 was at least 6" narrower (side to side). Questions I have are...
Are there metal "filler" panels on each side of the rear seat back in a '68 as there were on my '70?
What is the term for the "inner quarter panel" that the armrest bolts to/through?
What is the term for the "rear a-pillar" trim panel, is this the sailpanel?

Also, my '70 had a set of brushed nickel seat belts, where the lap belts for the front two outer seats (it was a bench seat) were a smaller buckle and clasp. The '68 came with miscellaneous seat belts with black covers on the buckles. I prefer the style I had in my '70, but don't know what to call them. Somebody told me these were "deluxe" seat belts, but searching for these is turning up equal numbers of both kinds.

Thanks again for the responses thus far.
