How did you get to the gas station? The infamous milk-crate seat? This is looking too good.
Keep it up!
Matt.

Just saw the car tonight for the first time in a week - it looks perfect with the pinstripes and the car detailed very well!

I'm also jealous of the gas prices. I pay 3.15 for premium :(

wtf? around here, you pay 3.50 for premium 91 octane.

car looks great! love the ronals soooo much.

what were you doing February of 1988 when Rita was coming down the assembly line...

Proper photo shoot using a real camera with 80's styled models coming shortly.

The interior has been a challenge, I had never skinned a full interior before. There are some areas that I need to go back and stretch a bit more but overall I am very happy with the result.

As the project started I reached out to Kevin at Creative Options for an interior kit. First question he asked me is how quickly do you need it. I said a few weeks and his reply was I might be able to fit you in a month. As some of you know he has a huge work load for one person and stays crazy busy. I searched around for an alternative but I called a few weeks later and said Dude do you have anything laying around we could use to make up a kit quick? After some thought he said he had sewn up a vert kit black with cardinal French seams, the customer wanted a different material so he redid it and had the bolsters sections laying around. He said I do not have any centers though what did you have in mind? I said how about a cloth that is close to cardinal. After searching he called me back and said I found the perfect 80's cloth, kit coming your way......
Here is the result, enjoy...
