That's not what they told me. :-/
Either way...is closed cell foam the same as siding insulation? I'm trying to get an idea of the texture of it.
btw, where do you buy the billet mustang locks? I have a friend who is a machinist and he has a lathe and such so if i can't drill them and such he prolly can.

You definately have a mad scientist thing goin on in there man. I love it.
You don't know the half of it. I know we talked about the console before and I told you I was probably going with fiberboad, but that didn't look like I wanted, so I scrapped it. I am now trying a WAAAAAAAAAAAY out there method. I think it'll work really nicely.

Some very nice rides. Although I would love to do something like the Maroon ride......It is simply not in my budget or frankly where I boot up in my daily driver...I got kids, trips to the stire, etc. and wouls forever be terrified of having custom car oops. That said it is really cool, I applaud those that go to this length and devotion....
I did however do some custom work but in-line with the early 60's them of the car.
Custom Dash
Custom Console
custom trunk
Custom Tunes, etc.
Here's a couple pics. I'm actually very much in the middle of putting it back together as we speak.

Yuck, thats 64 maroon mustang looks like the owner has been watching fast n furious alittle too much.
And why did he use Tweed on the entire interior? Tweed was a cr@ppy material they used on 80-90 generation pickup trucks, it was terrible then, and still is now. It's really ruff too, and if your wearing a thin shirt, it can itch the heck outta ya.
But I will say it has one thing going for it, those custom design kickpannels with the dual speakers are really nice. I think someone else already commented on that, but thats about the only thing I like about that car. I would like to copy those kickpannels myself.
And whats the deal with plasma screens? Like drivers need any more distractions while they are driveing? Now a cell phone isn't enough? You gotta try and talk on the phone, drive, and watch your Fast m Furious DVD all at the same time? Sorry but if I'm gonna watch a DVD, it's gonna be on a big screen in my liveing room, on a nice couch with dolby digital surround sound, not on a tiney 10 inch display in my car with non reclineing seats.

demonic: i agree that the maroon car looks silly, however tweed was used LONG before those trucks - it can be used for good use in a car if done properly and tastefully.
steelhorse: thanks, go ahead and get that for me, but I plant o do my interior this weekend, so I need to try and find a local place if I can.

Personally I like leather and vinyl...i think tweed makes a horrible seatcover (this is just me) but it can be used tastefully...
Tweed was one of the original upholstery fabrics. My grandfather had a thing for plymouths, and we have a '29 plymouth he began restoring before his alzheimer's got bad. He used tweed on the seats becuase he said he had one just like it as a teen and that's what it had on it.

Steelhorse,
The name of the kit company is Vellemen. When I was looking for it you couldn't buy them from distributors in the US. I bought mine online from a place in Canada.
Here is a pic of the billet lights, vents, fire extinguisher holder, shifter knob, and spun cup holder

Thanks GP I may look into those, although probably not all the pieces.
Skywalker - the company is called roddoors (www.roddoors.com) i have seen a few cars they have done and seen them at the shows locally. the product looks good and you can buy any portion of the material you want ie: uncoved door panels, foam, leather etc...
Demonic - Tweed can be cool if done right but I prefer leather too. Also the screen in the maroon car could be a touch screen to control radio, cd changer, Ac/heat etc.... I know it may be kinda ghetto but the touch screens are cool IMO

I love leather seats...however leather is a) hard to get ahold of w/o ordering it and b) not as cheap as vinyl since I'm doing DIY seat covers...cinyl was the way to go. it is a very soft vinyl though.

We ended up covering the doors around the panels in leather, the kickpanels as well, and the interior quarter panels too...
