    Very nice stuff guys... More?
    San Diego Chargers foot ball team here in the states use the Lightning Bolt as their logo. Im not so sure they are so loved these days as they are talking about moving to Los Angeles. I still like the Bolt look though!

    I can't take credit, the previous owner did them just before I bought it but I like the job he did. They are cloth and leather as well as the door panels.

    Damn it is! like an old broke in recliner. The missus has back issues, hated the Model A we had before this one but thinks this rides like a cadillac. Doesn't get hot in the sun or cold in winter. I don't care if it is outdated, its in good shape and at 72 I want comfort, not style.

    Here are some seats and interior we did in a 55' last spring. The front seats are buckets out of a 65' Chevelle factory rear springs.

    A few pics sent to us by a happy F100 owner. He had one of our flip up frames upholstered. Anything else new in the seat upholstering world as of late?

    Now that is classy - reminds me of a style we used in the late 70's on early sixty cars
