sculpted tweed insert on the stock door panels. She made the carpeted kick panels on the bottom too, so they'd match perfectly.

she made the headliner too. Scratch built the sunvisors on the stock rods, again so everything would match perfectly.

Rear side panels. The sculpting of the tweed is kind of hard to see in this picture. Also, she made the carpet from bulk carpet, because the pre-formed stuff sucks hiney.

That job wouldn't be cheap. It would take about 2 weeks and cost about 1200 dollars. There are tons of details that I didn't show in the pictures.

Weatherford is about 25 miles west of DFW area.

Thanks for the pics Those are really sweet!! Do you any other material besides tweed? I'm looking at more cloth style like I have now. Do you do any repairs? It may be cheaper to get mine repaired than just redone for now.
