Ferrari 400 Leather range details - Connolly Vaumol - Cogolo

Next to the paint colors, as per blog:


hereby another very nice contribution by David:

Set out below is what I understand to be the “standard” range of colours, plus some others which were probably special orders.

By 1978, it was possible to order the dash and console in the same colour leather as the seats and door trim. However, most dashboards remained black until the S2 400i was launched in 1982.

Most 400s and early 400is were ordered with contrasting stripes or inserts. However, towards the end of production of the Series 1 400i in 1982, it was rare to see contrasting stripes. 

In at least the UK it was possible to order a series 1 400i console with a leather covering instead of wood.

Our favourite combination is Verde Nijinsky (light green) with Arancia (dark orange) interior. That would get some attention. Probably only one 365 was sold new in this combination, and that has long since disappeared.
If someone does happen to have supporting photo's of this car that would be much appreciated. 

Would be a dream to find it and restore it to its original spec. Anyone???
