After 5 months of not having my car back due to the accident and subsiquent repairs I've had it back a few weeks now and decided to go ahead and get the interior redone. I was one day from the appointment to have the interior done back in January when the car got hit in the rear - so we're back to square one - 6 months later.
I struggled to get myself up to redo the interior on this car since it still wears the original - and it's not all that bad for a 48 year old car - but it needs to be redone. This will be one of the before and after threads with these the starting point pictures. I'll post the finished pictures in a few weeks when it's done. I am getting the seats and door panels recovered in two tone vinyl - light grey pleated mid section (to match dash color) and a dark grey / charcoal main base. The new carpet will be a charcoal cut pile. In addition to the upholstery I am having the back (trunk) fully sectioned off to separate it completely from the cabin (sheet metal covered in carpet) and also going to get the front bench seat notched so I can move my Cheetah shifter back a few inches and enclose it in something of a small console. Any rate here is the starting point and I'll update in a few weeks (hopefully) with the finished product.
