In order of remarks:
Trev, The States...(Caprice  Cool if you don't mind) is for sale as there is no more room in the shed.Was that a 5.0 litre V8 I saw in that pic of the FC Limo on your run the other day  Shocked

Hey Norm, I tried to have ride on the back of (the red thing) & I nearly swamped it. I'm looking after it for my son. It is also for sale as he has no more room in his shed either. He has a HR X2 Wagon in there. Lips sealed

ED, Mine will probably still look like that in 10 years at the rate I'm going. Sad

COL58FE, In 12 months I hope to have my other wagon (219 FC) finished, but not this 1. The poo wagon has 4 doors with it but only the rear ones are original and they are dark brown inside.
Regards, Gary

727 is the code for Sheath Brown and Sandalwood Beige to fit a Special Station Sedan.  718 is the same colours, but to fit an FE Special Sedan.  While door-trims would be the same, the rear seat material is obviously different (the wagon rear seat is lined on the back).  Similarly the wagon has linings for the interior rear quarters.  The hood-linings would also be different, but there is a separate numbering system for those, because there's only a half-dozen colours or so for them.

When ordering parts etc this number was quoted as a suffix, ie a driver's side front door trim in your colours would be part number 74xxxxx-727.

For that same colour combination there are also codes 472 (FE-225) and 577 (FE-229), which presumably were either the same equipment from a different manufacturer, or there was some alteration to the trim during the FE's run to warrant the change of code number.

Hope that helps,
