Carpet, Front & Back Seats

The carpet went in without a hitch . Hush mat sound/heat barrier installed first. Carpet is a very nice plush cut pile with mas backing, I highly recommend this product.

Question, obviously you're installing your interior before the car is painted. I have all my interior new and ready to go in but was waiting on paint. Is there any reason to wait or should I go ahead with it? Seems like a good winter project.

Front seats

These C-5 seats are out of a Corvette , they have five way electric function . Seats function great and the wiring was not a problem at all. Front and back seats were reupholstered in black perforated leather ,with green double stitching by a guy that redoes boat seats and canvas tops for a living locally .

If I would have painted the car first and then did all the other stuff, the risk for scratches in my small garage would of been to great , that's the only reason.

A touch of leather

The forty five year old dash pad was really showing its age and I figured if I could recover the vinyl top , surly I can do this dash pad . Went on EBay and ordered a full cow hide in jet black . Turned out pretty good if I say so myself . Had so much hide left over I decided to do the rear speaker deck and rear panels above the window cranks. See enclosed pictures. It actually was a lot of fun and it smells so..... good !

This is the new Ididit tilt steering column with Momo steering wheel , all the functions work including the horn . I'm very pleased with this plug and play column designed just for the 69 roadrunner.
