Black River Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Hi, just thought I'd share some pics of the "woodgrain" panels I made for my 63's doors. I used lexan to make them and a buddy of mine does hydro dipping, so we came up with a custom red burlwood pattern to match my red leather. Just thought I'd share some pics to give some other ideas to options for them. Lucas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lrlforfun Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 OK Lucas: Very very sharp. Now....to get the rest of an old interior to match the elegance of these! I have a 65 Riv, custom, and the interior will be transformed into a factory pattern with all leather, cut pile carpets and some sort of classy material for a headliner. It's really difficult to improve on the factory set-up. I would have loved to see the 63 Riv Silver Arrow interior in other colors as silver ...just doesn't do it for me.

PWB Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 Sharp! Cant wait to see them installed. Keep us posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black River Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 Yeah, this one is a little bit "much" for me, but I'm going to be changing the red armrests to black. I've got a leatherette kit for the console coming, and I've done a black leather dash and rear package tray already. The previous owner was a man of questionable taste.......

Black River Posted March 20, 2017 Author Share Posted March 20, 2017 Thanks fellas. And don't worry, I already got rid of the "ricer" brake pedal for a stock one and got a stock gas pedal. It's coming along nicely, I'll post pics of the completed interior when done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Mckenzie Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 How thick was the lexan ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black River Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 I believe its 1/8", but not 100% sure, was just some stuff I had hanging around in the garage. It sticks out slightly farther than stock, but nothing noticeable after you remove all the old veneer and adhesive. I'm going to stick them on tonight if I get a couple other things done on the car.

Seafoam65 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Unless you have plans to change the seat covers, I like the red armrests........it ties it all together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
