Mark, what a great idea. It's just another example of the many ways to make our retros more retro.

Mark, you have an excellent talent to visualize a concept along with a remarkable ability to pull it together. You are very fortunate to posess such a combination. Your upholsterer ain't so bad either!!

It's a great look Mark. Brought back memories of my '56 Bird and it's plaid trunk interior

Mark, looks great. Where did you get the white or grey plastic trim - did you have the originals painted?

Chuck, I had a local paint supply store colour-match my white interior and produced a plastic spray paint for the panel in the trunk. I prepped the panel with PRO-FORM PF 600 solvent really well, and then applied about 4 thin coats. Came out really well and hopefully will be durable. Even my upholsterer was impressed !

I don't have the car anymore, but I think my 58 Square Bird had that trunk pattern.
