We're currently rebuilding a 1986 Mini City E that was originally painted in Champagne Beige (LMK), I think with a brown interior. Unfortunately some years ago it was repainted black/white and the interior was swapped for a Mini Mayfair set in a light grey-blue, all now in pretty dire condition. When this was done it also appears the dash top and bottom rail were painted black using some vinyl paint, all done quite roughly. As far as I can tell the only remnants of the original interior are a brown passenger seat belt and the rear parcel shelf in a reddish brown!
Is there any information available about what colour combinations the interior will have originally been? I think the City E had houndstooth fabric on the seats in '86 (I may go with something different for the seats anyway) but I'd like to aim to get the rest of the trim returned to more original. The carpet is currently black/mould but I'm suspicious this would have been brown originally as well?
Stu.
