Newport interior question

[Newport73]

I looking at buying this 76 Newport. I'm liking the interior, a real 70s vibe. Was this a option? I see the door panels are two tone also. Tan on top grey on the bottom. Anybody have any input ? Thanks

I think that the seat inserts were probably redone at some point. In '73, the Newport was offered with the Navajo option, included seats inspired by Navajo Blankets but with a Navajo copper paint job and similarly colored carpets. This was the "Spring Edition" '73 Chrysler. As far as I know, that was the only year this option was offered, but it was possible to order a lot of different combinations.

Thanks that's good info. It looks like the car got optional Int and steering wheel, but not much else.

This option carried over into the early 74 models as well
