    I have a '71 with dark saddle, walnut trim. The '70 thru '72 cars I have seen have similar wood trim on the panels, not exact as they are real wood. I have seen later cars with a much lighter wood trim that does not have the grain and color of the earlier cars. Look online at wood veneers
    and you will see the difference between the walnut and teak. I am posting a picture of a walnut trim piece. I don't have a teak one for comparison.

    You can buy thin wood veneer and choose the grain and color and cut them out to fit your panels. The formica repros are...well, not.

      Todd, if you are near a large city go to a woodworker's supply shop and match your wood in person. These shops carry various woods and veneers, including exotics, for woodworking projects. Most also provide classes and can refer you to guys who can do an excellent job refinishing your console piece and making your door pieces.

      Good Luck!
