Countdown 11 days until the planned day of reunification of the body and chassis. This morning I went over to SoCal Upholstery and picked up the interior bits. The leather looks really good. Susan graciously suggested it sit in the family room for a few weeks until I'm ready for it in the car.
Here's all the pieces. The headrests mount to the rollbar when it's in the car. The seat covers and armrests were stitched by Al Knock Corvette Interiors. The rest was done by the local shop - headrests, steering wheel, shifter cover, shifter boot, and shifter knob.
Here's the shifter boot, cover and knob. The button was painted with the instrument cluster and rest of interior parts. Match is very good, and it was pulled from the ABS dash pad, and not the leather. Other side of the boot is double stitched like the shifter cover and arm rests. The shifter cover is upholstered over a fiberglass cover I molded last week after I touched up my mold I made a number of years ago. I still need to make a fresh Aluminum plate - I don't need both the SES and Alternator lamps that were in the previous version.
Here's the steering wheel. The hub cover was painted with other interior parts by CW Rod & Restoration.
