1 If you have some seat back material you can match. Take from the inside or seams where not faded.
2 You can contact the PAC roster keeper for those years.
3 I think there's a list on here of the trim codes and what they were. But it doesn't cover everything. I extensively searched and was unable to find a cross reference anywhere, to vendors materials, etc. even the museums, so don't bother with that search.
4 Perhaps a custom restorer shop may know or think they know but they usually want your business. LeBaron Bonney specializes in NOS GM, but some were the same. I could not match with them. They do make interiors.
5 I had alot of luck finding correct from "SMS Auto fabric" and some others.
6 Sam was in the process of making some front rubber for a few cars this summer, but don't know where he stands on that.
I'm going a bit custom, so I just bought some logo mats that can be stitched into regular auto carpet.

It's just one of those things that isn't well documented in this era or lost, but I still believe the info exists but it's not retrivable at present.
