In my never ending quest to add A/C to my car (maybe next year) I bought a used front center console piece to drill the holes in for the A/C pull controls rather than cut up my original. (I don't know why)
Much to my surprise the pattern of the material is different on the one I bought out of a '58 with leather interior and my '60 with vinyl interior.
May be common knowledge but I had no idea the console coverings were different between different interiors. Makes sense though - the one from the '58 with leather looks more like leather.
Going to use it anyway - only the sharpest eye will catch it once it's in the car under the dash.

top '58 with leather - bottom '60 with vinyl
reversed here - top '60 - vinyl..... bottom '58 - leather
