Features white interiors and upholstered running boards

Don't blame you! I love 'em too! Looking good and well on your way to that '60s style.. Nice, nice, nice.

Love this thread! Nothing screams Custom like white interior. Planning on white in my wagon.

 

Whats this style of carpet called and where can you find it?


Awesome thread btw!

 

Thrillr - do you mean the black carpet with flecks of color? That looks like Trinidad carpet. GM used it on late 50's Bonnevilles and other models which others here more knowledgeable than me can share.

I looked all over for the stuff. Most sources who used to carry it are out of it. SMS has black with silver flecks. When it is gone it is not coming back.

Sherman interiors in Michigan has some but he wants big dollars for it since it is earmarked for the Pontiac collector doing a full on resto where nothing but exactly right will do.

Maybe others have found the carpet available elsewhere. I know if they found a supplier carrying it a few years back, call them and see - I bet it is gone

Here's a pic I took at show last year of a 36

 

ACC still shows two colors of Trinidad carpet on their website but I don't know if they still have any or not.

I like the way they break up the dark color,,,,,

 

Loving the new look

 

Looks great kiwi

 

Nice job kiwi !!!!!!!!!! Has anyone done a snap on set of running board covers? Thinking of something that could be sewed and channeled over the lower facing lip and snaped at the rear. Something to work on.

 

thanks!...there is a few people on this thread that have used a combo of snaps and Velcro to attach the covers, autoweave who did mine glued them down and sealed the edges with silicone sealer and the material used was marine grade vinyl and mold resistant padding

 

Here's my 47.

 

Here is my white

The head liner is cool as hell mate!..... That must of taken a while to get it just right...

 

I can't take any credit for it, It was done in the U.S. before i bought it by someone very, very patient!

a few more I found on the web

 

Heres mine, Stitchbitch did the seats, had somebody else sewn everything else, me and wife did everything else.

 

Man, that car is tits. Nice job.

 

StitchBitch does very nice work.....I think im going to get Nate from Auto Weave here in Denver to do the interior for me as well...when you see the quality of his work his price is pretty damn good..

 

If youre talking about mine, thanks, I dont get that much own here. Dont post much about it, only Hamb friendly in certain areas
