More progress has been made on the upholstery.. I was hoping we'd have all of the leather into the truck in time for the UVU Auto Expo this weekend at Thanksgiving Point, however there were too many things for Monty to cover in leather for us and he didn't have enough leather to finish in time.. We have another hide on order and should be able to complete the upholstery within the next few weeks. Here are some of the pictures taken of the seats, new dash panel and head liner.
This is the seat (image taken on 5/15/11) before it was covered in leather.. Here you can see some of the work that goes into a new seat design.
This is the seat back. As you can see, we also drew in lines on the leather using chalk so Monty can stitch in the new design for the seats. This really gives the seats a more sporty style. The same lines will be sewed into the seat bottoms as well.
Ta-da!!!! The leather has now been stretched over the seats and then set in place in the truck for test fitting.
We also have the leather now wrapped around the lower dash panel. Having this panel in leather helps tie in the colors of the cab interior better as well as hide the AC unit and lines.
As you can see, the seats in combination with the leather dash panel (now installed) really compliment eachother..
The headliner is also now installed on the ceiling of the cab.. All that is left to complete this is to have leather trim installed around the edges of the headliner.
Stay tuned as more upholstery is installed in the truck!
