    I am putting new interior in my Tan Grabber for the Round-Up. I ordered the houndstooth material from SMS last week and the vinyl locally. When we took the carpet out I couldn't believe the floors in the car. I will post a few pictures but you can follow my work on facebook page for Bell's Speed Shop

    The back seat is original and in OK shape but the front seat is really bad so I am redoing all the seats and the houndstooth fabric arrived yesterday from SMS and it looks dynamite. The covers will be sew by Billy of Billy's Hot Rod Shop he does all my seats

    The carpet is going in, getting a new heater core and the old under dash A/C unit is gone. The material looks great and is a perfect match to the unfaded seat covers
