Interior pics and details.

[1sikchicksc10]

I actually took care of the interior TEMPORARILY last weekend..

I did a custom package tray with tan suede and installed a stereo..
I covered the seats with mexican blankets i found online and purchased.. before and after pics of the back seats below...

BEFORE Package tray.. non existant..


AFTER...


BEFORE Backseat.. front seats were worse.. I just used hog rings and added some padding..


AFTER Backseat.. Mexican blankets.. much better.. temporary cost effective fix...

Yes I did.. I hog ringed the bottom of the seat.. but the upper part I just have tucked and draped.. with them folding forward and the arm rest being shorter than the seat backs it woulda been a pain..

Oh and a buddy of mine did a rendering for me since I figured out paint..
No the paint won't be flat like that.. I don't think he knows how to make it shiny in photoshop.. but it will be cleared.. and don't mind the white spaces between spokes... he's new to photoshop.. but you get the general idea..

I'm still going back and forth on whether or not I want to shave the side trim that goes all the way down the car.. the rendering is without it!

Thank you. I haven't really thought too much about the original paint. It definitely needs to be re-done. It's got that patina look to it, but there is some rust on the passenger side read quarter by the skirt that I'm going to have to cut out and replace and when I fixed the rust under the back window I threw some tan primer over it to keep it from rusting up again.. so it may look like flawless paint in some of those pics, but it's far from it.. she needs a facelift!

I am! and lol no big tires.. rubber bands!

Lookin' good!

Those mexican blankets will do the job for now. You did a great job putting it together.

Also, my opinion, keep the side trim. The caddy has A LOT of space on those sides, and I think the trim just helps break it up, since there aren't really any other drastic defining body lines.

That aside, I think the blue on that will make it pop. Are you going to add some pinstriping?

Anyways, great just Christina! That caddy is looking badass!

[tcb-1]

nothing wrong with Mexican sarapes! think about it. get them dirty, throw them in the washer! fresh and clean. do that with upholstered seats...... I'm running blankets on both front and rear seats in my Caddy. I've even seen seats actually upholstered with them, and they look kick ass.

I'm digging your Caddy. do it your way and roll it......

[hotrodhomi]

Is this yours?

Thank you.. most likely going to add some stripes.. I love pinstriping, I don't want anything to busy, something clean and simple, I'm a less is more kinda girl. lol Thanks again.

Any progress on this beast?

[1sikchicksc10]

No progress on the car itself.. I know it's off topic, but it has to do with my Caddy.. got a portrait tattooed... And another tattoo... thought i'd share. I got a few more recently too.. doing an automotive sleeve..
