Very noice!! They're the softer '87 seats that don't deteriorate as fast as the 88-89!
As I want to do this colour scheme to my auto widey, I'm now officially jealous :P

Yes Mal, it has changed once again the entire character of the car giving it a much more luxurious feel, with the sound proofing and the new interior it really is a great place to be now. I cant thank Steve enough for the parts.

wow, that really does look fantastic!! I'm not one to care much for what seats look like (you just sit on em, after all.. feel is more important to me than looks), but daymn!!

have you considered taking your car to a weighbridge to see how much extra weight you've added?

Very nice. Are they widebody seats? They look different to mine. They look more like JA seats. But looks nice either way.

Thanks all for the encouragement. My Son walked into the shed on Saturday and saw my interior pulled out and said I was retarded. "Didnt you just do all this ?" What can I say it seems to be in a constant state of flux. I think I am getting close, I am more pleased than I ever thought I could be with the interior. I still need to move the window switching from the centre and make the ones in the doors work. I then need to replace the switch panel in the console with a flat panel that will incorporate a few switches, ignition, starter switch JD front bar driving lights ( JD front bar is getting painted this weekend to go on ) I need to get Rads wheels and spacers fitted then maybe one day go over the suspension system.

This is where we started in October of 07

This is where we are 3 years and 20odd thousand dollars later.

Its nice, but please tell me the 20 odd thousand included your work you did to the engine and other parts of the car please :oops:

because 20k on interior is EXPENSIVE

rofl Yes woody the 20 k includes everything,
Engine

It is probably way more than that I just stopped counting.

Yes Rad, I know they are correct offset I just want them to fill the guards.
