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

[bobsnotch at aol.com]

That red for 66 would have been used in the Pigalle cars that were only 
available in 66 (all red interior). My old 70 Square had a blue-gray mat, 
that was blue-gray all the way thru (looking inside the cracks). I don't 
know where one would find a brown mat today, that wouldn't crumble 
though. As it would have to be NOS. Gary might be better off looking 
on E-bay for a black one, and putting a piece of carpeting over it to 
protect it from UV rays.Bob 65 Notch S with factory sunroof

I've had 3 Squares with tan cargo mats, but IIRC Gary's mat was a darker 
brown. Of course I've also seen black and blue, and I wouldn't be surprised if 
there was a red at one time.

Looking at the parts book, I find 18 different colors listed, too many to want 
to type them all in, but including at least 5 different colors which I think might 
be browns. And, yes, there's a red (652 Scarlet) apparently used only in the 
'66 model year.
