I am impressed with your creativity and your detemination. I look forward to seeing the fruits of your labor. These kinds of threads are so interesting. Subscribed, and interested in how many man hours plus money you invest in your project.

Talking

Ahhh Mannn.... When I saw 'Project Retro Interior' I was expecting **** Carpet, Crushed Velvet /Velour headliner, Diamond Tucked Vinyl seats, Loads of cigarrette lighters and ashtrays covered by Faux Woodgrain, Fuzzy Dice and an 8 track player.



Talk about a major letdown...

Do you have any pics of this? I would be curious how this looks as I would like to do something custom with mine.

yeah, maybe you could find a whole dash and center console and try to make that fit in, i think that would be easier to do than molding it yourself, plus it's truly OEM.. i mean, your doing good but i think this would be easier.. if you can find a wrecked SC430..
