The interior is finally finished.The guy that did the front seat about a year ago apearantly went out of business. I didn't have enough $$$ at the time to do the whole interior so I figured I'd have him do it at a later date. So about a month ago I go by his shop and there's no one there. No forwarding address, no phone numbers, and I'm stressing thinking, how am I going to get someone to match the material and the patern. So I started asking who was good in Tulsa and a bunch of guys said that Scotts auto upholstery did nice work. So I took some pictures of the front seat for reference and drove the car down so they could look at it. They had a swatch of the same vinyl and they took a bunch of measurments. They matched the back seat perfectly and made the door panels with the same design as the bench seats. Very pleased with how it all turned out. I also opted not to use the plastic shifter cover and had a vinyl boot made for more of a 4 speed look. A couple of pictures of my hidden stereo too. Since the car looks pretty much like mid 60's all over I definitely didn't want a new digital stereo in the dash. I thought about mounting it in the glove box, but then had the idea, if it would fit, to mount it inside of an old 8 track player. Tight squeeze but it worked. I got the non working 8 track off of ebay for $23.00, gutted it and cut the face off and hinged it. Worked out pretty cool. Oh, Thanks to Andre Rayman for the factory radio too. I was needing all of the knobs and all as everything was missing. He hooked me up with everything, no charge. Not even shipping. How cool is that!!!! He is one cool Pontiac friend I met through this forum. Pretty awesome huh? This forum is the best.
