    Anybody have all pearl white upholstry interior in a black car. Looking for examples?
    Thinking about pearl white tuck and roll with black carpet, black dash and steering column, black and white 59 Impala steering wheel, about 6" of black carpet across the bottom of the doors and maybe black pipeing through the headliner in my black 40 coupe. Any pic's would be helpful. Thanks Gary

    White interiors are so traditional and looks good in almost any older cars.... go for it!

    Yes it will help, very cool. Love the pleats in the head liner. Gives me that look with the different color dash and lots of white, I was concern'd with the pearl white it would be too much all one color but your car looks great. Gary

    Oh yea, thats what I'm looking for, again a tudor is much bigger than my coupe and all that white doesn't look over the top. Very Nice, hard to beat a Martinez interior. Gary

    This is without a doubt one of my favorite 40's and the style of interior I was originally gonna do only in black/white. Then I saw a custom 52 chevy that had 1" pleats running all the way across the seat, up the back and rounding over the top just a bit to where they start to head down the back of the seat. It just seamed so 60's period perfect and there is no way to do that style in a 2 tone, sooo I decided it would have to be all black or all white. I thought the white might be a bit much but these examples look good. Thanks Denise
    Hey Nick you got any interior pic's of that 52 chevy from the W.O.W's ?

    Sorry, Gary - didn't get any interior shots of that '50 Chevy from the Omaha W.o.W. It was black, so I didn't even try to get a photo. I do have the owners' contact info, if you want to get ahold of them.

    Here's one that I found in my photos from the 2008 LSRU - it really only matches one of you parameters - pearl white interior :)
    Car built by Gary Howard - interior by?... maybe that fat and lucky guy?

    I looked for some of Jeff Meyers' Caddy, but couldn't find any... I know I have them somewhere!

    I also have a photo of the Lunar Lander for ideas

    Gary the pearl will definately look nice in that car. That coupe interior is quite small so I dont think you have to worry about it being to overwhelming.

    (Sorry, Gary... wrong place for these photos)

    Here are a couple more photos of that car. I believe the dash/gauges are Oldsmobile.
