Interior Update

While waiting for materials to come in for the exhaust I decided to cover panels and see how seats fit.
It appears the Sebring seats have such a high bolster that I will have to change the roll-bar to give 2" more of leg room for easier access.

Re: Interior Update

gorgeous - just as well you need to move the bar - there is some paint missing on it (the bar that is) which just makes the rest of the car look shabby. ;) seriously, that is going to be gorgeous!!!
 
Re: Interior Update

Thanks JP, I had planed to powder coat the roll-bar when the interior was finish but after seeing how much leg room would be lost was when I decided to change. Decided to go with a brush 304 stainless...

Big fan of the red and black interior. Fire that sucker up. Get the bonnet and doors on and let's go
somewhere. Looking good. Keep it up.
 
Re: Interior Update

That looks fantastic!

That is going to be so much fun to drive.

Thanks very much guy’s!! In David Vizards book he charted two different 1380 engines, one with 12.5 CR, and one with 10.5 CR. My engine is a tick below 10.5CR at 10.4CR. The 10,5CR was charted at 115HP.

Looks amazing, nice work! What seats are those, I'm not familiar with them.

Re: Interior Update

That is nice, you fab the scuff plates or they store bought?
 
Re: Interior Update

The seats are era retro’s of the Sebring Sprite seats that came from Archer’s garage in the UK. I choose them for their uniqueness’ and as well fit under tonneau cover.



Scuff plates came from Moss motors. They are not a direct fit and will have to be fiddled with in order to fit, at least a couple hours work to install.
