I got my 55 sunliner slightly apart to do a front speaker upgrade and a amp install,since I am redoing the front kick panels I ordered vinyl so I am finally getting to replace the piece of vinyl under the rear cushion that I never reinstalled after installing the rear floors. The lower rear panels have that color I ordered on them and was shot and since I have material left over from the front seat they are being redone,well now the upper panels will look like crap and since I only have enough for the lowers it looks like time to order from SMS again and will get enough to redo the rear seat. I was wanting to redo the interior in my 37 Chevy p/u but it might have to wait until next winter.
I will probably end up redoing the door panels before its over since the rest of the interior will be new,I would just order them to speed up the process but I doubt they would match very good so while I am ordering material I think I am going to get enough to do them too but they will be done later.
I need more room to do it in,I am starting to work in the basement and can not do large seats or whole cars for others.
Lower rear panels done and will be on the car tomorrow,first project done on my sewing table even though I built it a few years ago.
Going to order the material for the upper panels and rear seat and door panels next week,going to have about 370 dollars in the material I will be ordering and the material I ordered for the kick panels and I had the material in stock for the lower rear panels. The complete door panel set was about 800 dollars 4 years ago and I will have less then that in materials for the complete interior.
The lower panels are in and this is as far as I can go until I order more material,I have to get some dental work done so money is going to be tight and might have to put it back togather and do it another time.
Don't forget to rebuild the window cranks and all while you have the door panels off if this really is going to be a snowball. I envy your interior skills.
Wowzers , I always wanted to do upholstery , guess I could..my mom was a seamstress...sewing to make a living , noble effort on your part...love the color combo..
