I've only ever seen it on late cars, it looks especially good with dark blue exterior paint.

Did the white interior always have black carpet, or was there white carpet as well? Blue & white does look good btw..., one of those classic combos like black & tan.

I have a white/linen interior on my 911

If you have a choice, don't do it unless you are always clean, always have clean hands, and like cleaning...

I have seat covers now...

No, they were usually done with an off-white carpet.

.... & Correct to those above for the 75-76 MY only.

.... the blue on the 75 above was called Ancona Blue, but very close to Alaska & (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)

Jeff Bowlsby's site has the photos of the sample cards for 75 & 76 in the colors section IIRC, plus in the docs section are the original ordering sheets options with the color combos & code #s.

Love the Ancona/White color combo, but have to agree on the clean issues!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

Cool, thanks for the info. The black carpet above looks good, white probably looks good too. I can imagine how hard it would be to keep white carpet clean (even off white).

My 75 has the white. Not sure if it was orginal. Looks good but a bear to keep clean.

It looks very good with Laguna Blue as well. (Light blue, but a little different from Olympic Blue.)
