Yes from The Shop. Package tray as well but we are modifying it. All stripped and re-wrapped in leather.

Ahhh, that explains it. I was wondering why one headrest seemed shorter and wider than than the other. Very nice...I like it.

Seats turned out great. Tape is protecting the leather wrapped sides.

Things are moving fast now as covering in Italian cowhide has begun.

Door panel doesn't look like much now but tons of detail.

We have been focused on keeping the weight down by using lightweight materials when possible. Back side of the armrest routed.

Over the top... in a good way. Blends very well with the overall build vibe. Not easy to pull off.

Thanks. You are not kidding. We really tried to keep the track car theme but also not go too utilitarian or modern by keeping some of the classic '69 Camaro features.

Some more detail pics:

I'd say you're nailing it with the blend of modern and original. Very nice.
