Some great ideas in there, YR! I especially like the console.

Re: show us your interior
 

Youngrodder where did you get the doo panels and handles

Re: show us your interior
 

The door panels, I made. The door handles are Dodge Charger, Magnum or 300 handles. They were cheap and I liked the circular shape as most of these trucks is circular shaped.

Re: show us your interior
 

Are the arm rests off the 300 also??

Re: show us your interior
 

No they are aftermarket. Made for street rods. I got a smoking deal off of EBay. Normally they run around $150.

Looks great Marc. Waiting on this burb build!

Re: show us your interior
 

Me too.. I coach my 8 yr old son (Coopers) football team and with both boys in soccer and football my time is slim pickings until Oct. The plan is once the sport season is over to insulate and finish off the garage and then pull the burb in to start blowing it apart.

I promise to start a build thread once that happens.

Re: show us your interior
 

aw man very very nice ,wish I could see it in person .What seat and door panels do you have .Very nice thanks for sharing

Re: show us your interior
 

The seat frame is from a company called "wise guys'' door panels and seat cover were all made custom for the truck...
Here are a few more to give you some ideas for your truck...

Re: show us your interior
 

Since I was adding so many modern components (seat belts, gauges, seats, etc) I wanted to keep the rest of the interior simple (stock) to tie it all together so people would not notice the newer stuff as much. I still need to change out the steering wheel.

Re: show us your interior

Re: show us your interior

Re: show us your interior
 

parkwood, what's the color of your truck? Did it require different base coats and then the final color? Sure is 1 sweet ride.

Re: show us your interior
 

I would like to second this quote, very nice craftsmanship.

Re: show us your interior
 

can you save those door panels rinc? those are classics

Re: show us your interior
 

Did you make those door panels and headliner? I like how simple they are and they match the steel shape of the door.

Re: show us your interior
 

Thanks, went threw a lot of different sketches before I decided this one,and Yes I made all the panels from a moldable sign board(komacel), then some 1/8 inch high density foam,rapped in leather.

Re: show us your interior
 

?? Tell us more about how this stuff is used? Special tools required or what? Is there a website that has more information?

Your interior truly looks outstanding! Congratulations.

Re: show us your interior
 

Ok, I did a search and found this material is fully machine able like wood or metal. But I still would like to know how you "mold" it to conform (for example) with your headliner area?

Re: show us your interior
 

It cuts easy with a razer knife and you heat it up with a heat gun( paint stripper) once its pliable you bend it and wait for it to cool,and it keeps that form, just take your time heating it or it will get to soft, and it will take on any imprint like pressure from your fingers etc.

Re: show us your interior
 

Using sign board is a really good idea. What thickness did you use?

Re: show us your interior
 

OK so mine is pretty boring compared to most shown, one difference though I have removed the hump in the firewall. Mine is a COE and will have the front of the engine under the seat so I didn't need the hump. I will be using a late model seat which I plan on making a tilt forward option for engine access.

Re: show us your interior
 

Yeah, I'm curious about the thickness you used plus how you got the long straight lines to "blend" at the curved lines as though it is one continuos line?

Also, how did you conform the backside of the panel to the surface if the door or whatever?

God bless all of you guys with the new-fangled interiors. I personally dig the original look. Heres my 58. Just installed a new 23" Nostalgic Lokar shifter.

Re: show us your interior
 

To answer both your's Dan, and Srengr questions,the komocel is 1/8 inch and the foam i used was 1/4 inch( it's call volara sculpting foam or landau foam) and it comes in different thicknesses,as far as getting the lines that's done with the foam just cut out the strips and glue to the komacel and I left a space between my foam.When it was all glued into place and I had my pattern then I glued the leather into place starting from the top(or bottom) and laying the leather down making sure that it stuck to the foam and komacel.Thats the nice thing about the foam you can cut any design you want,my pieces on the back of the cab I got lucky and they just kind of snapp ed into place,I did make some wood curved backing that i srewed in place for the corner pieces you can see them in the one picture then trim pieces to finish also komacel

Re: show us your interior
 

Love the 2 tone dash wish I would have done that

Re: show us your interior
 

Brikar- thats a really nice,clean interior. I will certainly be attempting something along those lines.
In your last pictures it kinda looks like there are stainless strips in the left kick panel. Is that a camera trick or an accent your working on?

Re: show us your interior
 

Its just some chrome flexible body molding I was thinking of putting in but i'm not sure about it ,I still thinking about some finishing touches to the interior and that was an option

Re: show us your interior
 

Now this is REALLY interesting to me because I just purchased a used but near new dark burgundy seat you can see in my thread (link below) l
