Default REQUEST : Interior Pics

I'm getting ready to die my interior, but I can't decide between Black, smoke, or grey. If you guys have those colors or others could you show me some pics?

This is the only shot I have of my interior so far.
All black. I have replaced the pillar posts with new after market pieces. The t-bar cover needs to go next.

What color is the exterior of yours? I think that it sometimes makes a difference on the choices. Some colors may look better with a lighter color interior like smoke or gray.

Mine's 22 Metallic Blue it has black/smoke right now. Don't really like smoke. I was thinking white or black to be honest. White would be awsome but black owuld be good too, and a whole lot easier.

This is what I want to get my car to....I have the same oxblood interor also on a 73 w/ white exterior. Currently in decent shape but I am planning on doing a lot to it over the next few months. I think I am going to s6tart with carpets, maybe new foam and seat covers (hard DIY?) and some new bolstering. Maybe a new gauge console and radio.

I have already taken a few shots at some basic interior redyeing and re-finsihing with decent results.

Still up in the air....Depends on bonus (next month) and budget (negotiating with fiance).

Any info, advice or anything on what you have done would be reallly hekpful.

The interior was one of the first things I did, but I can't give ya an accurate account cause my car hasn't left the garage in nearly two years. I'm still restoring it.
