This winter I restored the interior. I wanted it to be as close to the original color scheme.
I made the carpets myself. The seats were done by a pro off course Smiley

Bought a big carpet


After some cutting:


Done Smiley


Total view of dash with carpets:


Sandblasted and resprayed the frames of the seats:


And I also resprayed my 'convertible' deck lid Smiley


And some pics of the total car Smiley

Mounted a self-made 'Simpson-bar' for my Simpson harness. I've ordered a small Simspon sticker to put on the back of the bar so you can see at when looking through the rear window Smiley
Inside:


At the rear of the car:
