    Here is the new upholstery with the Sebring seats. Pretty happy with how it turned out. Now to get the many small details left. 55 back from interior 2.jpg 55 back from interior 3.jpg

    Everything came together just right on that, Joe. Love the dash mods, and the center console is great. Tell us about the console, btw. If you already have, I missed it.
    The shape of the altered front seats pulled in real nice with the shape of the back seat........got a good flow going there.

    Thanks for the kind words from you all. The console came out of a 2006 Impala (I think that year), it took a bit of t******* but now fits nicely. A creative friend, knowing that I was leaning toward a column shift, had just the top piece of a console and he used that plus some cardboard to form a makeshift console. I kind of liked it so he went online and searched until he found what it was from. He went to a salvage and bought one and brought it to me. I liked the look and we started t*******. My original plan to use a column shift made me return the Borgenson box I had because of where the shift lever on the column would end up. I used a Fatman rack setup to solve that and then went with the floor shift. Kind of wish I had the Borgenson steering box now.
