Rear seat bottom is done, the top I need foam for now. I have a plan ....


and thanks to George for the help and to the Goat for the hog rings

Unable to buy everything I want at this time I came up with a temp solution to the carpet issue. I dyed it and bought mats to cover the holes/thin spots. I cleaned up a little too

The light color kick panel is just for the picture, still hunting those

another comparison, at least it's livable now. Still allot to do $$$ but it's a start. The interior door panels used to be the color of the seats, the desert sun is rough

Nice work!

Looks great! Time to hit the road

Thanks guys, I am carefully choosing what to re-do or not. Certain parts such as legendary definitely get the nod....

It's cool to see the car change this much in just over a week. Tom I'll have it registered in the near future.

I removed the windshield and have started polishing the windshield molding. I have all but the bottom finished to 1000 grit now.

This is in preparation for the headliner install.
Here's a before shot

Here's a better headliner material comparison shot. It's hanging in the sun now to coax the shipping wrinkles and folds out

Good luck with the headliner in this heat. I did mine last year during this time talk about sweating. Bring a friend you will need an extra set of hands at some point in time. Home Depot had some small clamps that we're cheap and made the job possible to do.

I started with upholstery glue but switched to contact cement in a bottle which was much more stable for the job.

Very true it was very hot. I got it ready, all necessary trim/parts removed. In an A body back seat, arm rests, window cranks to remove metal panels below rear side windows. I have the headliner ready with the bows installed.

My trucks outside again.... newest arrival. My wife said a week ago she wanted one, I said get one, and today she did. I'll wax it tomorrow and the truck gets its spot back.

I'm still working on the headliner. I found some interesting paint and markings. I guess maybe the factory line workers tested their interior door paint guns on the area near the visor mount?

I scored an original "aged" gas cap in the right color. Here's my first evaporust experiment
