Thanks for the warm welcome!
The seats as well as the rest of the interior are not black but some shade of dark blue. Looks similar to BMW's dunkel blau or indigo. Seats are in good shape except for the seams on the driver's side bolsters are splitting and the piping is torn. I hope that can be repaired.
Dash is cracked and headliner is torn in the back near the sunroof motor. I mailed the sun visors and steering wheel to the pros this morning to get redone. Eventually all will be restored
Cairo: Good to see a friendly "face". I post as Shadowfax on 914world. Am really bad with usernames haha.
Here's some (bad) pics of the seats.
