I think a Limeflower interior was offered on here recently. Put a post in the "Wanted " section?

You will not be able to get replacement new Limeflower, it is simply not made (I used to work for the company that produced the original material). You could get it custom made, but would need to order about two tonnes - and that's one hell of a lot of trim, and still wouldn't include the carpet. Regretfully, the only solution is to make up a set from whatever second hand parts you can find, or change to a completely different colour. I think that Netwon Commercial's "Biscuit" works well, and last Sunday spoke with someone who has used porcelin green. Good luck. At one time, RusLCV was collecting Limeflower trim to recycle, it might be worth dropping him a line.

Perhaps you could have some of the vinyl paint made to match? Ive seen it used in red and black with very good results, good coverage and has lasted well even in a friends convertible.

Yes but in keeping with the period - I've seen the same colour combination on Marinas and MGBs

Arizona wants more limeflower. Benson1 wants to get rid of limeflower that looks to be in pretty good condition. Am I the only one to see a possible match? :-?

I rather like it, Teal Blue and Limeflower are complimentary colours.

The 1970s was generally a decade of ghastly good taste.

You accidentally put good in that sentence :wink: :lol:

I actually quite like the limeflower interior, but I would really like a late bermuda blue traveller with the navy interior. One day....
