That is looking fantastic! Love the custom work on the interior. Not overly done. Just perfect. Did you ever figure out a wash for the seats? I would think that a mix of white a d light grey would work. Just dark enough to bring out the lines. Your interior reminds me of a custom interior I was working on for.my 66 Nova. I used modified leather seats from a Dubs Suburban and made a full length center console. I like how you added the console top from the 50 Ford (iirc). 

I have questions about the suspension on the 4X4 in the background of your first pic. I am working on a lift suspension for the 99 Silverado and trying to get some ideas. Got any photos of it?

Later-

I decided against the wash, I didn't want to mess up the paint and have to start over. I think the console came from the 56 Ford.

The 4X4 in the background is the Tahoe snap kit modified into the 2 door version. Since it's a snap kit I kind of cheated on the suspension. I posted some pics on the WIP here. I lifted the Revell H2 with a little more detail.

Glad you like.

Thanks!
