Were the 69 AMX's with charcoal interior given a charcoal-colored cut pile carpet or were they black cut pile carpet? After a couple years even the black looked lighter I would guess.

Mine always appeared black to me. I just recently took the seats out and side trims, shampooed the carpet and then dyed it black with a strong mixture of RIT black dye and brushed it in while still in place. Turned out great. If you do this don't over saturate too much, use a wet/dry vac to suck the excess out after the dye sets and then ventilate with lots of fans in a garage to make sure you don't contribute to mold or rust under the carpet...
