Default My 77 Interior Progress

My car came to me with an interior that was a combination of 3 different whites and at least four dingy greys in various states of stains. It had an aftermarket steering wheel that was a grey I have never seen in a c3 corvette and the light grey carpets aged/stained to an awful blue/brown color.

I ended up with black carpets and armrest cover for a deal I couldn't refuse on ebay, and since the best looking of the panels were white I have ended up dying the dash to match with SEM super white. I wasn't convinced the white would stay clean on the steering wheel so it ended up black. The door panels were previously recovered and are the wrong white, are bubbling where they were recovered and are generally awful but I will deal with them later when time and funds permit. The horn button wasn't attached in these pics as I was dealing with broken plastic rivets at the time.

Behold the "tuxedo" interior:
