"Light Blue" Bench Seat?? Please post them up!

My truck is "Light Blue" inside and out. I'm getting ready to strip the interior and get the inside of the cab repainted the original "Light Blue." I'm looking for some motivation on blue themed interiors so please post them up.

I was thinking the original light blue colored bench and possibly dark blue or navy door panels and carpet?? But i'd like to see some more blue interiors out there.

I have seen a few threads on this but they weren't what I was looking for.

Here's a current picture of my interior before I restore it. (I have a light blue dash pad also; which won't be installed until after the cab is repainted)

Thanks in advance,

Also, carpet recommendations? I've heard so many different things about the fitment and quality

Looks awesome. Where did you get that carpet if you don't mind me asking and how was the fit? That's pretty close to the carpet color I'm wanting to put in mine

It came from brothers but is actually made by ACC Carpets. I think the shade of blue is just called blue. They have like 10 shades of blue. Good fit. I caught it on sale.

. . . .

The blue cloth with vinyl scroll pattern ( just like the original ) in my 70 is from C.A.R.S.inc

They do a great job in making up these seats with quality workmanship.

Looks really good; did you just get a new seat cover for the bench? and if so where? I really like that. My bench has new foam etc so all I really need to do is get a new cover.

The seat cover is what came from C.A.R.S.inc, it was installed on my old bench seat by a local upholstery shop.

They put in new, "softer" foam, so I sink into it a little more and I don't sit up so high - it turned out to be much better then the original.
