This is where I've stopped for the year. It's been a lot of work but I'm satisfied with what I've done. Next stop is the engine.

Thanks. It's been a lot of work but it's starting to look like I've actually been making progress. I've enjoyed doing it too.

Looks killer! I want one of those tachs!

**Palf70Step** · 10-17-2015, 05:13 PM

Well done!

luvbowties · 10-17-2015, 06:26 PM

Your outcome looks great! Love the contrasting/coordinating colors on the seat and door panels; they go together perfectly. It's nice to have patience needed to 2-tone door panels. I'd be proud of such an interior.

Keep those pics coming!

Looks like you've got a good handle on things, Very impressive Steve!

Steve66 · 10-17-2015, 08:23 PM

It does take patience to do two tone but it's worth it. On another note I did most of this outside so don't feel like you have to have a spray booth. with some careful planning and a little bit of luck you will be surprised what you can pull off. Thanks again for the compliments.

Looks really good! Did you do the seat or have it done? You may have told me already, if so I apologize.

mud.man.rj · 10-17-2015, 10:47 PM

If the rest of it turns out like the interior your on the winning side.

Steve66 · 10-18-2015, 12:31 AM

All done by me. And jdl71 I did the seat too. From LMC truck and the paint is single stage acrylic urethane metallic from TCP.

jdl71 · 10-18-2015, 05:04 PM

Upholstery is the only thing that terrifies me more than body and paint. Was the seat foam still useable? Just a new cover or did it need more than that?

It needed more than that. The original foam wasn't in great shape but it still had the basic shape pretty well so I added some memory foam and reinforced the original wires and added some more along with some spring work. The LMC cover fit well and it's padded too so that helps but I couldn't get the rings to hold tight enough without tearing in some places so I used self tapping sheetmetal screws and washers along most of the bottom. It took about two days of taking it apart and putting it back together before I was happy with it. Here's a pic from last year when I did it.
