you are fortunate to have posters' speaking from their first hand experience. I agree with West that the sidemount trim doesn't mean much. The covers for 40 - 42 are the same. Some but not all 40's have the chevron trim, some have a dealer add "Packard" trim, some have "air conditioned" if so equipped, and some are plain.

I'd be more concerned about the upholstery - that looks odd. While there are various options, the door panel and seat harmonize better than that in cars I've seen. The fabric may differ (bedford cord seats have plain fabric side panel) but the color contrast looks odd
