I think they will send you samples if you ask for them. VW used slightly 
different colors in different years, so it's hard to tell which you need 
without comparing. When you compare, try to find a place that hasn't seen too 
much sun to compare to.

The color chart for 71 lists Cork (beige) as the leatherette option for '71.

There was a paper label (probably missing now) in the trunk for the paint, but 
I don't know of anything for the interior.
