New Seat Cover and Door Cards
I think it turned out nicely. I'm thinking of doing a Maaco respray (don't judge me...) and putting cypress wood in the bed. Any comments or thoughts? This really is just a pat on the back thread.
And yes, the door cards are from 67-68 and this is a 70 SWB Steppie. |

RenoKene: That looks great. I wonder how it would do sitting in the sun?

Re: New Seat Cover and Door Cards
Reno is right about the durability of cypress outdoors. Its first choice in wooden vintage windmills for that and the strength to weight ratio. Heres a pic of it used in this manner on one of mine. The dark rims (ribs) are redwood but that would be too soft for a truck bed. The cypress is harder but probably not as hard as pine.
