    Yippee! COA says 'Pepita'...

    Someone really splurged on 305811S; in addition to Webasto heater 005-760, Dunflop 165/15s, and Silver Metallic, they ordered 'Pepita'. Now I have an excuse for aftermarket 'sport seats'...

    Brian,
    Did the COA let you which pepita were on the seats ?
    The seat police may correct me,but in your car's era ( a '67 S ? )there would have been -

    black / white
    black / white / red
    black / white / brown
    black / white / green

    I hope your choice is now made a lot easier !!

    Cheers,
    Dennis.

    Thanks, all. The COA says:
    "Black leatherette w/Pepita Cloth Inserts/(B/P)"
    I'm assuming black & white inserts....

    Progressing along...

    Pepita, schemita…..

    Well, after sitting idly for several years (the car, not me) since the previous post, I dragged the car out of the barn and began to fiddle with it in late 2012. As has been posted throughout this sight, the car was stripped, mounted on a rotisserie, media blasted and returned to the special-order Silver by Freddie at Vintage Sportscar Restorations. While all that was going on I refurbished/restored/rebuilt all the misc. stuff. I've been reassembling it for some time, and with much help from the members here. Not yet finished, but I've been asked to throw up some pics so here are some of my favorites.

    Pepita...

    Thanks. Hope to have it in Monterey in August…

    and, lest I forget the pepita, the seats, ala Tony.
