While the '55 and '56 showroom albums reveal which interior trim sets were normally available for each exterior color combination, by model, we don't (yet) have a '54 showroom album, here, to guide us further.

However, I'd venture a guess that a '54 Caribbean produced with Gulf Green and Sahara Sand two-tone exterior colors would have allowed for a choice of either black/white or green/white interior trim.

In lieu of the paint/trim sticker, telltale clues as to the original interior colors must still exist somewhere inside the car. Carpet color should follow, logically, from that.
