I had the same color in my B and could figure out why nothing matched until I took out one of the seat. Everything was faded. The sun plays hell with interiors and the older they are the worst off they become. I finally had to replace the entire interior to get everything to match.
Moss will provide material samples on request. Look at the upholstery section and at the end of each discription there is an order # for the sample card. Hope this will help.

The autumn leaf was a medium brown. I'll beat that's what you have. Yours has faided. It is real bad about doing that.
It definitely looks bad after being baked in the sun for twenty years. But it's so gorgeous when its new. After I redid my GT in it, I couldn't believe how classy it looked.
