    I have been trying to get the rest of my interior done since GoodGuys Scottsdale. I finally was able to take it in yesterday. It will probably be done next week. I made the front and rear seats, door panels and covered the kick panels myself. I can't sew, so i cant do anymore of the interior. I don't like relying on others, but these guys have been good and very fair. Here are some pictures from today.

    Nice update. You have one of the best tudor sedans going. I hope those seats are comfortable. A car like yours needs great seats for driving to Pomona in June. More pictures please. Super Deuce!

    Mike I forget, are those the stock seats or did you substitute for others? Looks good nonetheless, thanks for keeping us up to date on your neat-o sedan.

    The seats are heavily modified 1956 VW bug seats. They have Mustang seat tracks. I see "Your woman's" Model A is coming along. How are you getting to the Roundup this year?

    Really great looking 2dr. Of course I'm of the opinion that there is no such thing as an ugly '32 2dr. Reference avatar:D

    That's right, I figured you had some of that VW dna running through there. We are flying out due to time constraints. I.C. plans on showcasing the sedan.

    Nice work as usual Mike. You've come a long way from brushed on exterior latex! You beat the LA Roadster snobs at their own game with that one!

    Nice sedan. Come to the LA Roadster show in June and park in the preferred parking lot along with the other real hotrods. There are usually about half a dozen interesting roadsters in the "real" show as well. ;)
