Re: Anyone built their own interior?
I've done several partial interiors, all 32's. I take the measurements of the headliner bows and he makes the headliner and wind lace. I have him cover the seat to my specs. I make the side panels, usually a very simple no sew design, finally I cut and fit the carpet and he binds it, I take it home and install it. It's a little more complicated with leather. I always do a cloth headliner. Ends up costing me about a 3rd of having the complete job professionally done. I've never been ashamed of the finished product, fooled a lot of guys. It was especially easy back in the tweed days but thank god that's gone. Also I've done a couple 32 roadsters and 32 pickups with rubber mat floor covering from ZORO. I Use 3/16 th exercise mat. Lays god and lasts good.
