Default White Interior

I am installing white seat covers, door panel, and arm pads in my 67. I am trying to determine what other pieces of interior panels/trim should be white. The doors, dash, column, and rear quart panels are green to match the car.

I was thinking of going with a black dash pad, but I am undecided on the kick panels, headliner and other miscellaneous trim. For those of you with white interior what other colors did you use in the interior?

Pictures of what you have would be a bonus.

Black dash pad, kick panels and console for my 69 - also the dash metal and panel above the fold down. All that blends in OK with the black carpet.

In a white (really, parchment) 67 interior everything should be white- doors, dash, interior trim panels, headliner, seats, kick panels, etc. The "appointments" would be either green or black, which means the dash pad (upper, if you have two, the lower would be white) and the carpet. I'd go with dark green pad and carpet, myself.

I have a white interior in my 73 vert. Krud Kutter does a GREAT job of cleaning it.

On my parchment interior the only black parts are the dash pad, and the rear deck. Almost everything else is a shade of the parchment color. There are some accents on the dash, bezels, and the center consul that are black as well.

I redid the white interior in my car, and the white bits were seats, doors, door panels, kick panels, quarter panels, console, lower dash, steering column, and steering wheel. The carpets, seat belts, and dash pad were black. Took me a weekend to get it all cleaned up (including repaint of doors and dash as well as cleaning up the floor pan), and it looked pretty good afterwards!

My 69 GT Fastback has White Luxury Interior (5WA),,The dash was originally black top and bottom,,and the carpet was black. Factory White deluxe door panels,,and of course the white seats with headrests. I changed it around a little though,,The car is Factory Auclpolco Blue,,and with the black and white insides,,it didn't look right. I did the carpet in medium blue,,along with the folddown carpet. Painted the lower dash in the right Medium blue metallic lacquer,,and blue pad. New white deluxe door panels,,white headliner,,and all the folddown panels in same white. It looks stunning now. Some people don't want white interior due to the cleaning issues,,I'm not concerned about it though,,I won't be driving it in dirty clothes anyways. I personally think any mustang done up in white interior looks super sharp. Just my .02 worth.

Thanks for the replies. I don't mind cleaning, so that's no big deal.

With a black dash pad I am thinkng the A-pillar trim should be black also, which turn I would think the headliner would need to be black.

Should the A-pillar trim match the headliner?

If I could find pictures of different white (parchment) interior combinations it would make things easier.

I know it's not a 67 but.

You can at least see the white A pillars black dash pad black carpet, black dash .White sunvisors, headliner seats. Hope that gives you one look.

Not liking parchment, redid the interior on a 68 with '69 special ordered white on everything
except dash pad, belts, carpet. Worked out well.
