Re: 68' Chevy c10

Awesome!! What are the pieces in pic #5? Looks like they're on the upholsterer's bench? Seat looks great!! Are you the seamstress?

Carpet, emblems, it all looks super man. What's the story on the other two you picked up?

Thanks Johnny! The pieces are the individual pleats. Credit for the seat goes goes to my friend Chuck. As for the other two trucks, looks like more work. 8)

Man, that is one sweet truck. I see you made a shifter boot out of leather. Is that because you could not find an original. I need an exact one like yours but I am trying to find an original one since I am restoring back to original. Yours is the only other one that I saw like mine. I ordered a new one twice and both times they came back the wrong one.i was just wondering we're to get one. Thanks
