Rusty,
If you could be a little more specific, I think I can help as I have all the built combinations.
Are you going for a genuine look, or just the colour intent.
Are your external colour/s to be original or custom.

Cheers,

Geoff_K

Rusty, red & white cars came with Riff red and black interior and later on with Fall red and white interior, however the latter is quite rare.
