Eldorado, the center leather or vinyl section will<br />

be in cloth unless otherwise requested.<br />

Basic Trim Code<br />

With Gray Broadcloth, the basic trim should be<br />

716 or 016; Beige 742 or 042, This means that<br />

except for the seat cushions and backrests<br />

which will be Broadcloth, the balance of the<br />

entire interior from carpets to headlining will be<br />

in the standard production combination of<br />

materials.<br />

Trim 719<br />

Trim Style<br />

Dumont cord trim will be "three-pillow" backrest<br />

style when ordered in a Brougham or Sixty<br />

Special.<br />

The center section of the seats will also be in<br />

the Dumont material, not leather. That is why<br />

the bolsters are marked 719 in the order illustration.<br />

It means the entire top cover of the seats<br />

and face of backrests will be in the cloth fabric.<br />

Color<br />

This Fleetwood "75" cord material is medium<br />

Gray. However, certain prefabricated sections<br />

will be light Gray.<br />

Such components as the headlining, back of<br />

front seat back panel, doors, door pulls, seat<br />

belts will be light tone. Combination 016 is,<br />

therefore, specified for the basic trim which<br />

represents the light tone color on these parts.<br />

Landau Roof<br />

Available on "75" Limousine or Sedan<br />

For a formal appearance of unmatched distinction<br />

a Landau Roof option is offered on the<br />

Fleetwood "75". In this treatment the upper<br />

rear quarters are blocked in, the roof padded<br />

and vinyl covered, a fully chromed Landau Bow<br />

applied to each side and the rear window size<br />

reduced.<br />

Other options that may be specified are:<br />

1. Omit Landau Bows<br />

2. Retain regular rear window size<br />

Exterior ornamentation includes a FLEETWOOD<br />

plaque on the vinyl upper rear quarters and a<br />

wreath and crest on the lower quarters. The<br />

wreath and crest also appears on the lower rear<br />

quarters of standard "75" cars.<br />

A Padded Roof only may be ordered by marking<br />

a top color number under TOP on the order<br />

form.<br />

Firemist Colors<br />

Extra Charge All Body Styles<br />

Five Firemist colors are offered on all body styles<br />

at extra charge.<br />

Each of the Firemist options is distinctive and<br />

reflects a strong primary color value in its<br />

category.<br />

Firemist color code numbers start with 9 and<br />

may be ordered by marking the number in the<br />

regular color space on the order form.<br />

Usually, there is no procurement delay in ordering<br />

any of these regular production Firemist colors.<br />

Two-tone exterior color combinations are not<br />

available as the body styling does not provide<br />

a separation of roof and upper rear quarters<br />

from the lower panels.<br />

Except on the Calais series, a two-tone appearance<br />

may be obtained by ordering a Vinyl<br />

Roof in a contrasting color from one of the<br />

six options.<br />

Special Colors<br />

Past model or non-standard colors can be<br />

supplied on special order at extra charge.<br />

To order type 00 in COLOR space on order form<br />

which denotes that color is not a standard<br />

option.<br />

In space captioned SPECIAL EXTERIOR COLOR<br />

describe color by name and model year, e.g.<br />

1964 Lime, 1959 Seminole Red, etc.<br />

Allow four to five weeks for shipment of any<br />

special color.<br />

Orders for past model colors are matched in<br />

current high gloss acrylic materials. The previous<br />

color, especially if it is a few years old may have<br />

been formulated with now obsolete pigments.<br />

The newer chemicals have improved color retention<br />

and durability. However, they could<br />

produce a variance in appearance between the<br />

newer and older color.<br />

This is a matter of information that may be of<br />

special interest to fleet owners who add new<br />

cars in the original fleet colors and have noticed<br />

a difference in their older and newer vehicles.<br />
