Of course (and I'm not being flippant or a smart-*ss) I bow to Owen_Dyneto's superior knowledge and experience. I've never had the opportunity to do much except admire (mightily)the pre-war cars from a distance. My 55 Pat came with the light blue genuine leather and dark blue fabric (Trim Code 60, I believe). The car was not in spectacular shape when I got it but I was impressed with the overall quality of the original factory interior - even after 50 plus years of use and abuse.

I do have a question however. The headliner in mine appears to be leather and is in most excellent condition. Is this usual, original? I've never seen a leather headliner before.
