    Elephant hide interior

    The Kardex for my 68L lists elephant hide interior. Is there a source that says what is covered? My dash, doors, and front seats have elephant hide. Rear seats, rear deck and headliner are not.
    Any help is appreciated.

    Congratulations that it's all intact and in good nick. What you have is correct, rear deck and headliner are standard materials... I've never seen elephant rear seats.

    jfd,
    Would love to see what your interior looks like. Heck, throw on a picture of the car as well!

    Looks proper to me.




    Except those pesky speaker holes.
