Headliner would have been the Aussie material that shreds. As for the cards and seat covers in 61, I reckon they used a Water Blue/Light grey combo
with Off-White piping for the seats with Blue and Off-White on the cards. Is the Beryl the original colour?
Cheers

Hi Matt,
My Dad use to drive a Beryl Green '60 - '61 Beetle.
A German import
The door panels were a 2 tone - pale green & pea green, with pale green piping.
The seats were a pale green.
The headliner... it was replaced with a beige mohair headliner.
