i'll be watching this thread too because i need one for my '71. I've heard good things about Al Knoch's in general; i looked at the site and surprised they don't have all colors listed....maybe if you call.

He seem to be 45 bucks cheaper than the other vendors ($325 compared to $370)....except for one vendor who for some reason is asking $580 for whatever reason

I went with Al Knoch door panels, seat covers,carpet and floor mats and liked everything but the pass side carpet but they took care of that problem. I purchased the dash pad from Wilcox and was also happy with it.

I got my upper pad from Wilcox and it was about 100.00 dollars cheaper than knock.

It was less money, fit perfect and matched my saddle color fine. and they are a supporting vendor here that helps people out.

Al Knoch dose have the other colors, they dropped me a mail giving me a price and part number for a black 72, will pass it over if this is the combo you need
