The area in under the dash next to pedals always has stock color unless someone has done a frame off resto.
If you still have 13 inch wheels on it, I have an extra spare wheel and tire for you, free, I need to make space in my garage.
Welcome, cool looking car, and I can sympathize with the back difficulties one can have while contorting during roadster repairs!
Questions always welcomed.

Have you got the rest of the side trim? It would really help complete the car.
