Upholstering my Car...Thought I would share!

Here are a few recent pictures of my 1960 Cadillac. I thought it would be cool to document the progress on here. Hope you all like it!

Made all my templates...Now time to start sewing up my pleats.

 

Looks good...

 

That's gonna look really good!!! Dig the old flattop, I've got a 59 olds flattop!

 

Very cool! I wish I could do that type of work, upholstery I mean. Very nice car.

 

Nice!! will watch the progress!

 

Some good times in that car man, glad its coming together like it is!

Hit me up, I got the next couple days off.

Just no more axes to adjust the hood hinges!!

 

Good for you. Have fun doing it.

 

Recks, Looking forward to progress reports on your Caddy !

Looking forward to seeing more pics of the interior work, nice design layout.

 

I dig the pattern. Looks good man.

 

Those 60 big fin Caddy's were the best ! My Dad had one the same color as your's a d was a fordor as well . Damn think rode like you were sitting on a cloud ! That was one of the best year Caddy's ever made . I also loved that beautiful grill !
Does yours have that radio with the "Wonder Bar" too ?

HAHAHA Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do! Thanks for all the help you've given me!

 

Thanks for all the positive reinforcement guys! It means alot.

 

Looks good, and really, really BIG! LOL
I'll keep following the thread.
Also from Oceanside.

 

Wish I had that talent It;s not easy

 

What part of Oceanside? We are pretty much on the border of oceanside and Carlsbad.

 

More more more..... Looking good, car and interior!

 

Started with the package tray. excuse the hard lights and trunk lid gap (haha the trunk in not shut!! just clarifying)

 

Looks great! Keepem coming!!!

 

Actually my business is in Oceanside, Oceanside Boulevard & Temple Heights. I live in Fallbrook.

 

Man that looks great!! I have a 60 flattop i just started on. I have a million questions if your willing!

 

Looking good man. What did you put down on the floors? The foil lined stuff....

 

Looks good so far!

 

The seats loook alittle stiff

 

I've always found the women like them that way.LOL

 

Interior is looking great! '60 Is my favorite year Caddy, and flattop is my favorite body style, perhaps the best looking four door ever. I have a '59 Impala Flattop. More pictures please as the progress continues.

 

Good idea making patterns that you can lay out and design different ways until you are happy. You upholstery guys amaze me.It takes real talent to bring it all together with straight lines and have everything fit nice. Looks great so far.

 

Thanks everyone! I have the majority of the car done. still need to make floor mats and do my headliner. here are a couple pictures.
