Features white interiors and upholstered running boards

Any thoughts from anyone with white interiors as to carpet colors??

 

Im going with a maroon color close to the body color with white piping in the 39 when the interior gets done

 

For carpet, I would either go black or body/accent colour if it is a dark colour. The added contrast between the white and dark carpet works well together

 

Brian's Jewel is one of my favorite's right now. The running boards look awesome on it

 

I guess black carpet then if body color is a tangerine color?

 

I am just about finished with this '40 coupe. O ff white pearl running boards and seats with close to matching body color blue carpet

 

beautiful car @Russco inside and out

 

upholstered running boards, now thats something ballsy and kool, i dig that look and thumbs up to anyone who runs them. nice pictures of the cars

 

Looking tits Russco!..... Great tire combo... L78 and 5.60's ?... That's what I'm running... It was funny watching people poke and touch the boards at LSRU... It's like I had re invented the wheel!....oh had the marine vinyl is super easy to clean

 

all that money on nice white upholstery and all i see is a indian blanket. got sick of cleaning it already and its hardly been on the road.

 

anyone have any ideas to remove marks on white vinyl upholstery?

 

Hey hombres ruin. Of course it would depend on what made the marks and what type of vinyl you have (mine is the marine type), but I've found mild soap and water works for most marks (requires some elbow grease too). If I come across a particularly stubborn mark I have used Spray Nine with good success, but I would test a discrete spot first in case it compromises your material. Good luck!

p.s. Very nice shoebox you have there!

 

@hombres ruin mr.clean magic erasers...best thing. Just be careful on cheap grade vinyls with them

 

I have already scuffed the left side board getting in and out of the coupe and the marks have wiped away with soap and water....so far so good

 

I always carried a small bottle of Spray Nine and a few cheap, white washcloths with me to clean small spots. Worked like a charm.

 

I was thinking what about adding pics of finished trunks and upholstered wheel wells (inner fenders) and anything else that people have done with white upholstery .....DreddyBear's coupe is sweet with the wheel wells done

 

Here's what we ended up doing on my '39. Plain on the inside of the deck lid and pleated on the bulkhead and sides.

 

Another view.

 

Nice and clean mike... I'm going to make my own patterns and get them done in white pleats...

 

Post pics when you're done. Love to see how it turns out.

 

You guys are killing me!!! I'm neck deep in rust repair dreaming of the days of rolling fields of white tapestry and glimmering panels of the finest monochromatic man-shimmer.....

I been also searchibng white interiors and upholstered however all the good one are really expensive and i can't imagine the price ,in fact aside from looking it i am also searching about some idea about garage or autokatos cause i wanna make my garage looking nice too aside from my car.

 

Earliest one that comes to my mind was Tognotti's "King T" (1914 I think) because I had the AMT double kit back in the day. Any year with running boards was susceptible to white upholstery in the late '50s early '60s style to my way of thinking..
