Hi all, I am restoring an 850 back to original specs and need some pics of 850s in their original form. Exterior and interior pics would be greatly appreciated as my interior was not standard when I bought her. I need to know things like the stitching patterns on the seats and the like. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Forward pics to [email protected] or post them here
Thanks all
Dave

It is allmost impossible to buy the correct textured 850 seat vinyl. check out what Newton Commercial have available in the UK, there were a few types of 850 seats & trim available depending on the year so its hard to get it perfect when your doing a resto unless you have the original seats.

That 850 on ebay is a steal at $10,000 buy-it-now, yes, apart from the retrimmed front seats, and a repray in the original colour , the car is very,very original, just the rubber floor mats alone make the car worth buying, if I had the readys on hand I would be clicking the buy-it-now button !!!!!
