Garage and steering wheel came out great! Malibu is also a great looking car, so cool to have something in the family like that.

Seats I picked up. No idea what they were from originally. When I found them they were in the rear of the same van the front clip came out of. It had a horrible spray bomb two tone paint job and some bitchin' Chevy bowtie port windows that had already been robbed. Can't wait to get them recovered and in the van. I plan on having a local upholstery guy do the seats, and I will do the easier stuff like door panels and such.

Thanks man! I also have my grandpa's 70 C10, but I'm debating selling it to keep my focus on the Chevelle when the time comes. Having a hard time letting the C10 go though.

Thanks!

I think I'm going with a distressed medium brown vinyl "faux leather". Since I will be doing some hand tooled leather inside to accent and some fake hardwood, thought it might all fit together nicely.

Man the '70 C10's have my favorite grill of that bodystyle, I wouldn't want to give that up either.

Thanks man! Yeah, I know some folks might not dig her, but I feel like I found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow for sure.
