Not my cup of tea, but it does show your upholstery talents, the panels and parts look great, just the seats look too much like Grandmas rocking chair for me!
Going to look better all together though I think.

Just when I thought you were running out of stuff to do on the SuperCar. Is that the 3rd interior?
Looks pretty fancy by the way and nice touch on the A Pillar.

Are those new sub boxes in the background?
