[T3] : Re: 1969 Type 3 Squareback Cargo Mat

[Keith Park]

There were brown blue and black mats originally, they were dyes over the
black ones,
You'll only get black in the repops,unless you paint it.

Keith -

My 1969 original Cargo Mat when I bought the Square (new), was brown  The
interior vinyl seats were chocolate basket weave, carpet was brown loop
pile.  Since the exterior paint color was Savannah Beige, I suspect that was
color coordination throughout.

IIRC,
Jim A. said:  "I don't recall ever seeing a brown Cargo Mat, 'till I saw
your Type 3 in 2010."

I wish I could find  BROWN Cargo Mat, but I expect all the repops are black.

"Black goes with everything."  Or so say the fashion designers on 5th
Avenue.  ;-)

Were the "tears" in your Cargo Mat a result of inferior quality?  Or
something else?
