Interior Replacement - 76 - Anacona Blue, White carpet and seats and counsel Options

[bradburm]

Hi All

New to the site and new to fixing/restoring 914's - restored a couple of Mopar's and just switched with a purchase of 1976 2.0 Anacona blue on BAT with I think has a unique interior. - White seats, carpet, armrest and backing with a black dash. The interior is junk and needs to be replaced - so a couple of questions, do i leave the carpet white? Can i changed the carpet to black so the normal wear and tear is not as noticeable - or does this kill any originality, etc?

I welcome all opinions - my two Mopar's are all original, matching numbers, etc - so I understand originality

Does someone make complete kits for the interior or can I take to my car upholsterer?

Can you get the original seat covers, etc? I have aready pulled the seats but not the counsel or backing nor carpet yet. The seats have black mold on the back of them as the backing (Someone tell me the proper name) .

Do they make new material for the sunvisors? or is this something I can recover?

I was also wondering if i could install a heat/sound deadner prior to reinstalling the carpet seats? Has anyone done that - i ask because it made a huge difference on my Mopars'
