I have been told by Hampton Coach that Grey mohair was offered as a custom interior for a 1932 deluxe 5 window coupe.
I can then assume that was available with a dove grey paint,top and body.
I am wondering if the lower panels and fenders were black? or dove grey?
Also was the interior metal "dash" grey or black?

Gray mohair was available on the coach, standard coupe, standard sedan and the 5-window coupe. The sport coupe had either tan mohair or tan whipcord.

For Dove Gray, the lower sheet metal was painted black and the instrument panel was also painted black with Dove Gray in the instrument panel depression.

Thanks Skip, but I was wrong with my question. I understand that I have a deluxe sport coupe, even though it is a 5 window coupe.
Therefore I cannot use grey mohair and be ture to the vintage of my vehicle.

Correct! Since you have a "sport coupe" and not a "5-window coupe", the two choices for upholstery are either tan mohair or tan whipcord.
