I have searched all of the data bases for an explanation for Interior Decor #139.  I would appreeciate it someone could tell me what color/interior this number represents.  My car is a 1970 280SL 4 speed.

Thanks,

Jeff

Jeff,

According to the Merrideth book (known to have some errors), this color code is:

MB Tex, bamboo upholstery, bamboo headliner and brown carpet.

Best,

Tom

Tom,

Thanks for your input.  The seats sound right.  I was most interested in the carpet color.  Over the years the sun has faded the carpet so that I couldn't tell if it was originally brown or green.  I think brown is the better color combination.

Thanks again,

Jeff
