That's a "standard" 1100 clubman interior. I had 2 with that interior although in black fabric, looked nice with Denim blue paint.

That interior was used in the GT from mid 1975 until the introduction of the deck chair style seats.

I've had a thought. When I'm drying wheat at harvest it generates a lot of dust. I wonder if there is a business opportunity to offer a barn find dust creating service. Just leave your vehicle cross my palm with silver and I will return it a week later with that just discovered barn classic look. Any takers?
