Pictures have to be less than 200 KB ( you will have to resize them )

If you have tried to load any and it did not work make sure you change the name on the picture before you try to reload again or it will just say you have one already by that name and still not let you post it

Open in Microsoft paint / resize / click on the pixles tab and reduce it. Then check size, if it's below 200kb rename it and save it. then you can post it.

I have a question as I am missing most of the interior. does any one know if classic industries sells door panels and seats that are not covered as I am going with a custom interior? and don't want to buy things with covers just to pull them off.

fy469rtse

Clear plastic taped over door , to mark all relevant holes , used as a template for new boards , upholstery shop should be able to help with board material

twodko

I pretty sure you'll have to fab up door panel yourself if you go custom.

You can buy new seat foam for OEM seats......highly recommend you do that.

If you won't be covering the seats for awhile you might look into some inexpensive
seat covers a la JC Whitney.

yep, you can probably find some good seat frames and foams. check swap meets for the frames.

here is the direction that I plan on going with the car. the black will stay on the side and the burnt orange will be on the top. then for the interior everything that is white will be black  and with orange accents.

You can make door and rear seat panels stating with paper, transfer to cardboard, then upholstery shop board. Should be inexpensive and easy. Did my interior that way. Looked great.

Transferring let's you refine the shape without cutting more expensive material and making mistakes. Measure once cut 3 times.
