>> Hello Everyone:
>>
>> I have a '65 convertible with a red interior.

>>
>> The pictures above don't show it, but the vent knobs are definitely
>> red.   I know this because the little grooved circle on the face of the
>> knob is quite adept at gathering a layer of thumb-dirt and needs to be
>> picked with a toothpick to get it out.  This dirt doesn't show on my
>> Corsa's black knobs.
>>
>> The car will be in storage for another month or so, so I can't post a
>> picture.  If my aging, porous mind permits, I'll post a close-up photo
>> when the car comes out for the season.
