Re: Surf Blue

Are we talking like the really glossy material used on some bar stools?

Yup, it's gonna be blue and black with the metal flake look in both colors.

I kind of took a chance ,having it covered like that but we'll see how it looks.






Thanks for all the compliments guys ,I'll post some pics of the seat as soon as I can.

Re: Surf Blue

After I post the seat pics ,that might be the last of progress that I report for a while. I've been looking for another project (car) to fix up. Something that my wife and I can both drive and enjoy with a backseat. I found what I was looking for (1963 Riviera) and sent the guy a deposit to hold it for me ,so if I get it I'll probably be busy on it for a while.

Re: Surf Blue

Show us some pics on the buick also. Just because its not a truck doesn't mean that it can't be on here also. I've been watching this build closely and you are a great inspiration to us all. Maybe we need a non-truck section for builds? Keep up the awesome work!

Will do, as long as everything goes well and I actually get my hands on it. Thanks for the compliment.

Re: Surf Blue

I finally got my seat back in my truck, like I said it's kind of different.


I picked up my new project as well ,gonna be working on getting it bagged and street legal ASAP. I think I'm going to make this car lay all the way out on the ground. I enclosed some pics of that as well since some of you wanted to see what I was going to do next.

Re: Surf Blue

Haven't done much to the truck lately, other than drive it. Since it's been a little warmer lately. I'm planning on getting the bed liner sprayed soon, and maybe building a small sub enclosure for behind the seat (maybe). I'll post more pics when I get the liner sprayed.

Most of my time and money has been going to the Rivi lately. (FYI)

Re: Surf Blue

Oops... my fault that was Danny Ewing's truck. Similar body lines different color... my bad!

Completely disregard the post above. If you're interested in what I mentioned above check out this thread.
