NOT MINE 1970 Newport FB

How long did people keep the plastic on the seats back in the day?
 
My grandfather, had it installed new 1960 Ramble (he smoked a pipe) had it there the entire life of the car perhaps 15 years and junked it, The headliner was a gorgeous shade of pale yellow, he died @ 84, in 1977, not from smoke and not from WW1 where he was gassed by the Germans. He carried bricks @ the age of 14 at the brick yard where he worked., later in life he was bent over at the waist (bad back). They were a tough generation, but they paid extra for nice interior.
