68 burb interior questions ...

picked up a 68 burb a few weeks ago and have some interior questions?

what does a headliner look like and what gets covered ?

did burbs come with any type of dome light ?

where can i find and buy rear door panels ? not the same as the fronts...

where can i get a complete set of lock that match ? 2 doors -1 barn door ?

does anyone have a dealer seating chart ? tryin to decide what i want in the back seat,full-3/4,3rd row etc....

any help or leads on where to go will be very helpfull.

thanks in advance

Re: 68 burb interior questions ...

OEM style headliner pic below. No one reproduces them.

All the burbs I have seen came stock with one dome light.

No one makes the rear door panels for 67/68 yet that I know of.

Door locks are the same as the PU's, and you can get a matching set at any of the vendors.
The rear push button is not being repro'd yet, but if you still have the original you can
get it keyed to match the doors.

Check with the old dealer show room hand outs, you can usually find those at a good swapmeet.
I will look around for the dealer that sells them around here. Just can't remember the name of the guys shop, but he travels everywhere.

EDIT: found the guy that I buy stuff from. http://www.faxonautoliterature.com/home_one.cfm
Get in contact with him about literature regarding your burb, I bought all kinds of burb stuff from him at the Pomona antique auto swap meet.

Contact these cats about the OEM style pattern for your door panels and seat vinyl: http://www.smsautofabrics.com/
I personally have purchased all my 68 burb side panel vinyl from them, and by now they should know exactly what you need.
Good group of guys there, and the prices are pretty good.

looking for blue back/pass. door panels.. i have the orig. but there weathered and beyond repair and since i was going to order new front panels i was going to order new rear ones but cant find anyone that sold them ...

vectorit, thank u for the info
looks like im missing the chrome headliner strips also.. figures....
dont think mine came with a dome light.. seems like my burb is very basic. i dont have a light or any type of hole for a switch in the door frame..
figured the locks were the same just tryin to find all that match without having to buy different sets an having them rekeyed

thanks for the info on the literature but right now im just looking for a pic of the different seats the came in the burbs.. i know ive seen a pic on here before just dont remember where ??

thanks again for all the help guys.
