Re: rate my interior

Those seats really catch my eye. I could see those looking bad in certain applications. But since there is so much gold carpet, I think the small black contrasts turn out good. I like those in there.

It's pretty solid looking.

Time for some new sail panels, though. They aren't hard to recover by yourself with any kind of matching material you can find.

Re: rate my interior

Looks like a clean used interior with possibilities. Repair the sail panels and scrub the stains in the carpet and you are good to go. Interesting speedo. The more I look the more I like.

Sorry to double post. Remove a sail panel and stop by a few upholstery shops and there will be one that will sell you enough fabric to recover them. Also, Classic Industries Camaro has sail panels.

Re: rate my interior

After looking at it, i think black carpet would make a great compliment to the seats, but if the carpet is fine i wouldnt change it.

Re: rate my interior

Carpet looks sun bleached

Black carpet is an awesome match to a tan interior

Looks pretty good.
I give you a 7.5 out of 10. Wouldn't take much work to get a 9.

Re: rate my interior

The sail-panels is a given, no need to expand there.

The carpet has some discolourization due to wear and grime. You could attempt to remove it with a stain remover or a good carpet shampoo cleaner. If it can't be removed or if any is faded you may need to actually replace it.

The seats look pretty darn good. Some slight dirty areas. Try using the same methods as mentioned above. Looks like it should come out.

The big thing is it looks like there are no cracks, holes, burns (cigarettes) or tears. Very nice. You can buy replacement foot pedal pads and switches with new clean sharp labelling for reasonable prices, if needed.

Overall, really nice and in better shape than most I've seen.

Re: rate my interior

I'm not as familier as others here, for recommending what kind or brands of cleaning equipment.
If you do use a shampoo type cleaner or a steam cleaner, be sure to allow the carpet or fabric to dry thoroughly. This may take a day or two. Maybe set-up a fan.

This specific question would qualify as a new topic. For best responses try posting it seperately here.

It looks pretty good. I am not a big fan of the speedometer type you have. Everything looks like it is in pretty good shape. Nice car

Maybe this is somewhat off topic, but that radio in the pics - the buttons remind me of a Gameboy
