L 69 interior

I am looking for possibly the ugliest Camaro interior ever. It came in the L 69's and the seats actually had the word camaro on it----repeatedly. I believe it came in blue and red. Any info would help as a friend and I are restoring his 82 and he has a obsession with weird camaro parts (console analog clock, ceiling console with T-tops, ETC.)

Thats the conteur seat option available from 82-86, although 86 was the only year it didn't say camaro all over everything.

Is that true? I had an '82 that had the conteur seats and there wasn't any Camaro Camaro Camaro written on them. Yes I do know which interior your talking about (Hot Rod had a good pic of one about 6 months ago). My '82 conteur seats had adjustable lumbar supports and was actually rather comfortable.
Later, Garrett

To be honest, I'm not sure about 1982. 83-85 Camaro everwhere, 86 looked like the custom cloth pattern.

I had the Lear Seigler seats in my 84 HO Z28. They were brown and very comfortable. Expensive too! I think you had to order custom cloth and then the LS seats on top of that.

StreetRCR, look near the bottom of this thread to see 2 pics of the seats. They look like 85-86 only or 86 only to me. totally mid 80s.
Hope this helps, GT

Thanks for all the input. I guess what I'm really looking for then is somebody wanting to sell an interior like that. However the linked post from kizz mentioned the fabric. So if anyone can hook me up I'd be greatfull:hail:

do a search on this site for the seats. I recently posted a website link that had the fabric available. I am using a laptop while on the road, so I don't have the link bookmarked on this computer.

The 82's did not have the "Camaro" fabric. 83 up did. The seats are actually the same ones that came standard in the 82 Pace Car. They are pretty tough to find!!

very weird..... Never seen them in a 87, and I have had 2 84's both have had the "Camaro" fabric. I have also had a one owner 83 that did, so I know 83 had it too.
