Re: [VAL] new to list - seeking info re: original interior in 1971 Safari

If it was anything like the pictures on the 1973 brochure I have, it was 
a fairly large swirly pattern in avocado or burnt orange. This is one 
place where restoring the trailer to it's original state might be a 
hideous mistake. A trailer, IMHO, is not a good place for loud large 
scale patterns. They tend to make so much visual noise that the trailer 
seems even smaller than it is.

Mine had a roller blind too, and because it is an International and 
therefore a little fancy, it had a sort of gold fringy rick rack trim on 
the roller shade. Same on the roller shade over the sink in the kitchen. 
   Mine were deeply stained with cigar smoke and fly specks.


Keep the questions coming !
