Wow!  you found my Westy that was stolen last year!

Please return it asap!

Just kidding!  Congrats on the blue/green plaid Westy.  In my opinion this is
the best interior Westfalia ever offered.

The blue/green plaid was only available in '74 and '75 on the white or
yosemite yellow models.  Yours could only be better if it was yosemite yellow
like my '74 Westy.  If you have the original canvas in the poptop, it should
also match the yosemte yellow color, though it's likely faded a bit.  The
only other color offered on the '74 - '75 Westy was orange, also with
matching canvas and matching orange plaid interior.

I like this plaid so much that I've taken to collecting the fabric.  I even
know of one guy who has a whole roll of the stuff but won't let go of it.  I
will one day recover my front seats, and have a set of curtains and maybe a
couple of throw pillows made.  My wife threatens to use it to make me a kilt.

For now the front seats are still holding their own.  The tie dyed curtains
are getting a little sun faded, so maybe this winter we will do the curtain
project.  The original curtains would have been green.  I still have the
front window snap in curtain.
