What about interchangeability? does anyone know if the door panels can switch with the '63.
Is the front and back seat upholstery interchangeable with the '63?
thanks.

Why is it that Dearborn, Mac's and all the rest seem to start at '63 for seat upholstery, door panels and such?
Does anyone know of a source?
thanks in advance,

Thanks Snappy.
I did contact carpenter but they pushed me off to Autocrafters.com because that's where they get the vent seals from.
