Re: Your F-Body's Interior

On one hand, you are right. There are a bunch of threads with interior stuff. However on the other hand there are more than 150 members with bunch of interiors that havent been posted up. I would love to see more of them. If you really search you will find some cool things but they are not in the 3page thread.

Re: Your F-Body's Interior

My interior is so disgusting right now that I wouldn't want anyone to see it. It sits in the garage needing a new inside and out. But I know that one day it will look like SLP_GTA's. That is one clean looking car.

Re: Your F-Body's Interior

Look forward to seeing the new interior. My son borrowed my car for the last year. It wasn't in great shape before and now its even worse. Sometimes I just stare at it in the garage, just waiting for the time and money to appear so I can fix it. Right now working on just getting it driveable. Had to fix a broken trunk hinge, broken hood latch, broken antenna, leaking radiator. Appearance items come down the road. I once had a 70 Challenger Convertible and my one regret in life is that I ever got rid of that car. I will never make the same mistake with my TA.

letting your son drive the car may be almost the same as selling it. If you love the t/a so much i dont think you should let him drive it. :-/ Not saying anything will happen but god knows what could happen. try to find him another cheaper thirdgen

Re: Your F-Body's Interior

I'd like to see some of the little (and big) custom touchs people have done to give the car a higher quality feel. I'm at work, so I can't post any of my pics, but I will post some soon.

I've heard so many people say they wished they never sold thier old cars. So I made up my mind young, if I ever getta nice car I'm keeping no matter what. I was 22 when I got mine, now I'm 37 and still glad I have it.

I don't think I could ever sell my car, Plus I'll never get back what I put into it so I might as well keep it

The rear seats are still the same, but I'm thinking about taking them out and going with a 6 point rollcage.

Yes it was....original colour was Dark Red Metallic. I painted it Corvette blue. Looks much better.

I've been collecting NOS interior parts for the last 18 months. So far I've spend over $2,500 on interior parts alone!!

Nothing tears up a nice leather inside like a few Yuma 120 degree summers. Going for cloth next time.

How do the new Corbeau seat feel? I've thought about just replacing the stocks with something like that.

Since these pictures, I've put in a new steering wheel, put in leather shifter and e-brake grip, and replaced the ugly regular bulbs with LEDs (under dash and dome).

Re: Your F-Body's Interior

Hey Compuwiz..I like your interior a lot for grey. Looks very clean and not over done. With the 4th gen seats..perfect. I was going to add racing seats to mine but I think it takes away from the look of the cars. Did you put new carpet in there also?

It feels GREAT! Now I can actually get to the point where the tires are howling without giving my legs a workout from bracing with my knees. The only thing that could still see improvement is my shoulders, but once I figure out what kind of 5-point harness I will be getting, I don't think I'll be moving anywhere.

But even with the stock seat belt and just the seat, it holds me in way better. It is a highly recommended upgrade.

P.S. - Before I got the seat installed, I had to have a little cushion to protect my self from the sharp angles on the center counsel. After Autocross events, my knee would have a big dent in it from bracing my self. Here is how I kind of solved that problem...
Your F-Body's Interior-100_1669.jpg
To give you an idea of much bracing I was doing with my knees, the top of the ash tray cover popped of when I took a sharp left handed turn... it added about 4 seconds to my time because I slowed to look at what happened. Imagine your driving around and you hear a loud popping sound and see this thing fly up from the bottom of your car... freaked me out, that's for sure. I don't know if I should glue the cover back on or if I should swap out the whole thing with the spare that I have.

Interior will be done Jan 2009. We will be doing a "live build" on the interior during Speedorama car show in Toronto.

Might get Chip Foose to help a bit as he comes to the event each year and drops by the booth we have. He drew up some Camaro schetches on two or our club t-shirts which we auctioned off for his charity.
