I'm not 100% sure, a local upholstery shop did it for me. I know they were really happy how it turned out too, as am I.

Here's mine.
All custom done by an old-school interior guy I use here in town. He did my '55 Bel Air also. Does incredible work.

Thanks guys. One thing that has been brought up before is to have a style or theme through out your build. I've always like the original agressive look of the shape of the truck.

With that in mind I went with an agressive interior. Buckets vs bench, black with stainless trim, racey floor shift vs column shift.

I also live where there is no good interior shop nearby, so my next choice was to choose ideas that were unique, yet doable in my own shop.

Thanks again, Jim

Welcome to the forum! That's a very interesting red paint on the dash, etc. What are you using?

Thank you! It was a black base coat with lots & lots of red metal flake/clear coats over. Duplicolor from autozone.

I tried sending 5 photos of my 1953 3100 Chevy Truck and they would mot go through so i am going to send them separately. I used ABS panels (door, ceiling and rear) from Rod Doors and they fit perfect. I made a mistake and bought a roof (ceiling) ABS panel from another source and it did not come close to fitting. He told me that I would have to modify it to fit. I said that I was not going to do that and I wanted to sent it back. At first the guy did mot want to take it back but he finally did. The ones from Rod Doors in CA fit like a charm. No trimming necessary. My upholstery guy covered the ABS with a new synthetic leather product and it looks fantastic. I attached the door panels with a new type of fastener. It is something like velcro but it is better. I have had zero problems with it coming loose.

Hey gag1025,
that's a good lookin' interior! Is it a recent install? I know Rod Doors took down their web site but I read somewhere you you call in orders. Wondering if that was actually still the situation?
Thanks.

Added a speaker box/storage compartment behind seats this weekend, where the old gas tank used to sit. Also added some vinyl panels up under dash since we forgot to paint under there when it was empty (oops). Bolted down the drivers seat. Next step is to mock up a center console.

49. The dash is a 55 Chevy pickup, and the door panels have 55 Chevy car door chrome on them. The seat is a 59 Olds 4 door.
