Interior:

The interior has probably seen the greatest visual transformation.  It originally had mis-fitted buckets that allowed a great view of the top of the windsheld frame.  No way you could see a stop sign.  The front floor was a concotion of plywood, fiberglass and some kind of foam.  There was a psudo back seat that was "wired" into place, sorta.  And black everything.  The first thing to go were the buckets.  Replaced by modified 'lower' buckets, from a late model rice-burner, fixed the vision problems but didn't really fit my vision, but worked for the interum.  Most importantly, I wanted the front floors fixed and safe.  Bitchin' Products supplied the 'almost fit' kit which, with the help of friend John, made the repair.  Along with the floor came the added improvement of removing a rather worn floor shifter. 

Next on the list was locating a bench seat to get the look I had in mind.  Old School, red/white Tuck-n-Roll.  Having found the seat in, a late model mini-truck, the interior bagan to take shape.  Seat, door panels, rear side panels and a cover for the rear (now storage) area have been completed.  Remaining on the list is the headliner which has been acquired but still to be installed and to fab a console (and trash the Wal-Mart cup holder).
