Here are a few from my 54....

Gliderite seat, distressed leather from a vintage huge sofa, Lokar shifter, custom molded in panel for gauges, power windows with button under the dash, custom cover to house the Vintage Air, matte burgundy paint.

I like the smooth area that was the radio grill. Very tastefully done.

Kevin Mac · 03-28-2018, 10:06 PM

Vintovka that is what I liked as well. I always thought that area needed something and he nailed it.

vintovka · 03-28-2018, 10:36 PM

The grill and ash tray being gone doesn't bother me a bit. I do wonder if the glove box was extended to fill in.

MIKESAD50 · 03-29-2018, 10:38 AM

Very nice, Dragbike. the whole truck is really nice

Glove box and door are stock dimensions.

dragbike are the pictures misleading or is that steering wheel all up in your... upper thighs?

Ok my recently resto-modified eyeballs are subject to some optical delusions.

Still very nice and beats my efforts to install a tablet in the grill area.

Real close. I have about 2 to 3 inches of clearance. But the pictures do make it look that way.

Here is my 56 interior, just finished with sound matting and console.

found a pic of the ultra suede headliner

black trim is door edging

Really like your set up. I am think about converting to bucket seats and a center console. May I ask what seats you selected and the center console?

They are Procar lowback buckets, I built the console myself.

Thanks. You did a great job on the console. You could market it...

Hover · 04-13-2018, 08:22 PM

Thanks for the compliments!

SAMMAN56, love your truck. Would like to see more pics and details. Do you have a thread? What's that seat out of?

Cheers, Jim

lilredfifty · 04-25-2018, 11:22 AM

Hey, dragbike425, That steering wheel is really nice, is that an original 54 steering wheel?

The seat is from a 2000 Safari van, the head rests have been removed and the seat has been reupholstered. Sorry no build thread.

It’s custom made.

CountofMonteCarlo84 · 04-26-2018, 02:01 PM

SAMMAN56 that is very sharp. Do you get full throttle out of that gas pedal? The pic make look deceiving, but it looks pretty tight.

Ogre- the suede headliner looks pretty nice. I think that is where I'm headed.

Plenty of throttle, the picture is a little deceiving.
