Thanks for all the replies and compliments. This car was by far the best deal I've found since I bought my house! Im perfect happy with the interior and don't want to change it. I was just curious for learning sake if that seemed original or not.

jb-ob, good eye. I do believe it to be a late 28 production and it is a fordor leatherback. I plan on creating a thread to maybe get some clarification on the numbers and markings im seeing. Id like to develop an eye like yours for these one day!

eagle, would steaming the headliner help with water stains? Ive never shampoo'd or steamed an older interior, any tips? I have some water staining, and obvious signs of struggles in the past to get the roof to seal. Im fine with it being a fair weather car at the moment haha. A nicer smell wouldn't be bad either. The car doesn't smell terrible, old mostly but with the faintest and most familiar sent of mouse urine. Trace evidence has been found in various spots of those little devils.
