1969 Cadillac - GM Heritage Center

INTERIOR INFORMATION
The Devereaux cloth has a brocade weave
and comes in four colors.
Dumont is a cord weave with about 4½
wales per inch. It is offered in three colors.
Note: Dumont cloth is also available in Med.
Gray for the "75".
Brougham and Sixty Special 3-Piilow Style
A "three-pillow" back rest style of trim is
used when upholstered in Sierra grain leather,
Devereaux or Dumont cloths.
All Cloth-Pique Stitch Design
The three Dubonnet cloth options are "all
cloth": code 016-716, 026-726, 042-742.
This means the center section is also in cloth
instead of leather or vinyl. The skirt or cushion
face of the "all cloth" options, however, will be
vinyl.
Other distinctions of the all cloth options are
1) an exposed pique stitch design on both back
rests and seat cushions 2) a two-pillow back
rest style. (A three-pillow style is used with
leather and the other two Fleetwood cloths.)
ROSEWOOD PANELS
The door and rear quarter inserts of (all
cloth or leather upholstered) Fleetwood
Eldorado, Brougham, Sixty Special and "75"
cars feature Rosewood panels (except front
doors on style S).
De Ville cars upholstered in leather also have
Rosewood paneling.
The door and rear quarter inserts in cloth
upholstered De Ville cars will be in body cloth.
Calais cars have vinyl inserts.
Note: The reference to Rosewood implies
either wood or vinyl applique, depending upon
body style and application, i.e., door inserts,
instrument panels, steering wheel rim, etc.
INSTRUMENT PANELS
Both upper and lower instrument panels are
now in the same dark tone colors. The instrument
panel color also applies to windshield
pillar and header moldings and rear view
mirror support bracket cover.
STEERING WHEELS
All steering wheels are black. For details of
ornamentation see page 31.
COLOR RECOMMENDATIONS
In addition to color harmony, popular usage
is a consideration in the listing of recommendations
on pages 10 and 11.
A Convertible buyer is likely to be less conservative
in combining colors than a Brougham
customer. This factor accounts for certain inconsistencies
in recommendations by body
styles.
For example, White leather is not recommended
with color 18 on styles P and M but it
is on all other cars. Another case is Red leather
in a Dk. Blue car. This is popular in Convertibles,
but does not sell in closed cars. The color
compatibility is the same on all cars but the
popularity is not.
A similar situation applies to other acceptable
combinations which are unlisted due to
their limited appeal.
One such example is Aqua upholstery with
Silver exterior. The combination is not discordant
and will please many individual customers.
ADDITIONAL INTERIOR INFORMATION
Complete interior color and material specifications
may be determined by a reference to
a series of charts beginning on page 14.
Also, in the "yellow edge pages" section, a
great deal of optional specifications information,
especially applicable to each body style,
is listed.
A Dual Comfort Seat... custom fits the family.
