It is so weird to not have leather interior in my 77.
Every 77 c3 that I see in a car show, is leather.
My interior is stock but a fake suede type (not sure what to call it).
Leather looks so much nicer, but in the winter this material is not that cold.
Should I keep it stock or go for the leather?

Thanks

Are you saying that all of your seats are a cloth material?.... My '77 has leather on the sides and bolsters on the seat cushion, and on the seat back , for ease of siding in and out of the seat. And a cloth insert on the seat and seat back to hold one in to the seat with out sliding around. And if I rember correctly it was a no-cost option called the "Heritage Seats"....

Friendly suggestion: Get some reference material on what was available in 77 before doing anything to your car, if you're worried about showing it. Leather with cloth inserts on the seating surfaces was the optional interior for 77. All leather was the standard. The cloth gripped your backside much better on the notoriously terrible 68-78 seats, and it was more breathable.

What's the code on your trim tag? Leather was standard on the 77s; cloth was a no cost buyer's choice.

Cloth was an option. I looked it up.
Leather just looks better.
Back in 77, when I had a new 77 it had came with leather and cloth was an option.

The code on your trim tag will tell you whether the car had leather or cloth. Leather usually has a three character numeric code; the code for cloth usually has two numbers and a C.

"Optional" usually means you paid extra for it. "Choice" meant you could select between A or B and it would not cost anything additional. Cloth upholstery was a choice on the 77s.

Me bad. I meant choice. The word option does mean choice too. Free or cost but still an option.
My car came with cloth.

It was a no cost option. You were able to choose for no additional cost.
