Black = very nice

Im sorry if Im butting in on your thread, but I really would like to do the same to my 86. I have the good ol' porno red interior with a nice silver exterior. I want to go with black and I was wondering what I exactly need to get in order to start doing this task. thanks!


take it all apart and clean them good then start painting with light coats...
 
No. But I've seen your carpet. :shrug:

885-37.webp



nuff said? :shrug:
 
Is it really a must that the front seats' material match the rear? Because you could always combine both ideas: OEM black seats for the rear, and late-model leather (or cloth) seats for the front. Just a thought.

Lookin' VERY nice so far! :nice: How many cans of paint have you gone through so far?

under 30 bucks worth...

grey that the plan...soon..
 
coo thanks i think im going to head to autozone and get me some and start doing this.

what did you use to clean/prep the parts? alcohol? dish soap? also for those that have dye'd their seats what did you guys use? Duplicolor fabric?

i dont know about dying the seats or carpet i think it would wear off on your colths

for prep i cleaned all panels with tuff stuff and then rubbing chool then a couple of light coats

make sure to make a thread when you start or just post it in here!!

cool thanks will do the carpet i will probably leave it gray for now i would probably just like to paint the seats and then maybe later buy black carpet :D
 
ive thought about it with about 100 other options....for the front seats i would be looking at 300 or so then to have my rear recovered to match would be another 200 so there 500+....that mustangs and more still has the 91 coupe with black interior...maybe ill see if i can snag the seats from that...they were mint.

i thought about some grey tweed seats with black carpet to add contrast...that way i could do a insert on the door panels.

im gonna start looking for a 140MPH cluster around hilliard that i can buy..i want to do white face gauges...ive always been a fan of them.



not 500... just keep on lookin around. The rears can fit..i used them lol. got my set for 350
