How common is leather in EB ED Fairmonts? I am looking for one as an everyday car and would like leather, but so far I have only seen one Fairmont with leather. :

Fairmonts don't have Leather.
Only Fairmont Ghia's got leather, the choice was either Full Leather or 1/2 Leather 1/2 Velour.

Fairmonts didnt have leather in EB/ED, they had full velour unless it was an option? or unless you mean Ghia?
Damn it, missed by 1 minute! |

Thanks for the info. I wasn't sure if Fairmonts had leather as an option, or it was just available on the Ghia. I will keep looking, but focus on the Ghias.

So many have half/half.
My EA has that. My ED has full leather and it looks much better, front & back. |

Much more chance of getting good condition velour. But leather does look better, if you can find one in good condition.
