I know of one person that was able to get 77 material from them. something like this is best to call. could also do a search on google for factory or oem vinyl material reupholster auto. there are other sources and no... materials changed throughout the years

looks like SMS only goes up to 1975. Would the colors be the same for the later models?

short answer; why not?  ;D

Actually building it for a friend. I aquired a 1.7L Mazda PN diesel from a New Zealand Mazda Familia (323), from an associate in the Phillipines. The Familia was claimed to acheive 70+MPG. The Festiva is a good 500-600lbs lighter than a 323/Familia, so me and a friend surmized that with that engine, and some airflow management, we may able to acheive 100mpg... Since my friend John drives all over the east coast (can't say what he does, but it involves nuclear chemistry), we decided that we'd build it, and he would give a real-world evaluation.  8)
