A white bench interior in any Superbird is unusual.  

From the Daytona Superbird Auto Club database of known cars:

U code Birds with Vitamin C = 71 cars
of those, with automatic = 41cars
of those, with white bench = 2 automatics plus one 4-speed

Also, we don't have any 6 pack or Hemi cars logged for Vitamin C with white bench.      There may be a few out there that are under the radar.

Does that include ours?  :D 440 U code bench column white int.  :icon_smile_big:

Aero 426 was going to check the data base and see if ours is one of the three Vit.C white bench U code cars. I knew there were not a lot of white interiors around but no idea it was that low of surviving cars. Will be interesting to find out.

This was my original post a few years ago.

Any idea how many EV2 white bucket interior console 4 speed cars?

I notice in one pic, the metal doors parts around the vinyl is painted black with blk armrests. In another pic of the car looking thru the window it appears to be painted white.  Which is correct?

GOTWING

I'm not an expert but ours is painted white with white door panels and the interior is all factory original. I would imagine they would build it either way.

I did a statistical breakdown of some of these option combinations a while back.  As you know, statistics don't tell absolutely what is, they tell the probability of what is.
About 1 in 8 cars received a white interior or (for easy arithmetic 2000 cars) 12.5% or 250 cars.
About half those cars were B5 Blue or 125 cars.
That leaves 125 cars spread out over the other 6 colors or about 21 white interior cars per exterior color.
Transmission breakouts on U codes are about 60% automatics or 13 cars in each color.
Bench seat I think was about 50/50 so....
It isn't impossible that this is one of three in that combination.
At some point almost every car becomes one of one if you go far enough out with the options such as tachometer, 6 way seat, three speaker dash, radio delete, rim blow wheel, etc. etc.

I would have to go back and look at my notes to get exactly accurate estimates but these are close.
