Default Help with interior colors

It's a long way off since it's not even up on wheels yet, but the '77 will be painted either Goodwood green or a dark Cherry metallic. Can someone tell me what interior colors came with Goodwood cars? Also seeking opinions about what might look nice with the mid 90's Cadillac Cherry paint. Photos appreciated!

I've generally seen them with saddle, but black is also used I believe.

Goodwood Green was a 1967 colour. Here is mine (now sold). Interiors were black, saddle, white, or green.

Saddle, black or white interior with the green exterior; Black, white or red interior with the red exterior. Personally, I don't like the saddle interior with red. White or black will work with either...if you just can't decide.

Black is not in the cards... the actual outside temperature right now is 101. I could stand nekkid in the center of an empty room with brand new white carpet and still get dirty somehow... just my lot in life I guess. So saddle, red or green are promising. Anyone have a snap of a green interior?

If black is too hot for you, red will be too. It absorbs a lot of infrared...almost as hot as black. Sounds like saddle or white to me; green/green is just too much..green.

Green on white would really pop.
