Location: bishop, ca | I'm just seeing this car's posting, now.
It has been posted before.
The interior is very nicely done, but, the center sections of vinyl should have heat-embossed 'pleats' in it (and which
material is now available from SMS).
It has an after-market power brake system in it.
The radiator (top tank) is not OEM--what's it from/off-of?
Nice car, for some restorer to detail-out.

Location: Wilmington, Delaware, USA | To add to what Neil mentioned about the seats, it appears the red vinyl is the standard off-the-shelf variety and is not the metallic OEM type and without the french seams on the corners. Also, if the vinyl is incorrect I wonder if the fabric insert is incorrect as well. Either way it presents well and would seem appropriate to a casual observer. If it was mine, I'd be bothered by it every time I got in the car. |

Location: bishop, ca | The fabric insert material is known as "Linear Lucidity" (!) and it is 100% correct (SMS, no doubt) as is the type/color/
execution of the seat beading.
Upon further review, the seat vinyl might not be the correct-texture (what was it called..?) material (too smooth?)
and the rear arm rest tops are supposed to be 'in' black, not red.
It's hard to tell, in the pic, but the sheet vinyl shade might be too light, too; the door panels look like they are 'in'
the correct shade of darkish red.

Location: bishop, ca | I know y'all are curious, so, here's how an original Royal interior 'should' appear
(at least, in this survivor-condition), and here's a detail shot of another "Linear
Lucidity" Royal hardtop interior.
