  2. I did a full length. Have to take the roof off to get it out. Turned out great. Wood paneling. Fiberglass then foam and leather.

    Great thread idea. Pics would be nice, especially of Sputnik era customs. Or roll it into the Plush and Padded thread. That thread is amazing.

  6. Here's mine before finished. It's all metal, I actually used arms from a porch swing for the main frame on it.

    That looks great! Kinda looks like it belongs there. Some consoles I see look like their “ forced “ in to the vehile!

    Here’s one I didn’t use. Made of 1/4 plywood, 1x2 strips. This one had a flip front and spring loaded sliding door. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
