Interior questions

[N747JB]

I am restoring a 74 Bronco, painting the same color as my original 73 model I had as a kid, Limestone green metallic. Trying to figure out what to do inside? I've got the front and back seats, blue vinyl, but my 73 had green cloth with green fabric door panels, does any on make these any more?
Also, if not the stock front seats, what do you recommend? I don't need any less room in the drivers seat area!
Thanks
John

I just called the bronco hut for you. They make the dashpads, door panels, quarter panels, seat covers, and carpet kits. Green is not a problem. They have about 100 color options. Didn't discuss price, but they are the only ones that I know of that does what you are looking for. I am assuming you are looking for the houndsooth (Ranger, Explorer, or Sport) fabric pattern.

Thanks! I'm learning on the fly! I'm breaking my own rule, restoring rather than buying it finished! :banghead:But, it's gonna be a great Bronco when it's finished. upergrin:

I figured, that's the "rule" on the aviation forums! Right now the body is in my body shop, the engine and transmission and transfer case are on the ground, getting ready to pressure wash the frame and axles next week. Looks like an Bronco autopsy gone bad! I'll get some pics when we make some progress.:beer:

Nice. Didn't expect to see that. Thought you'd have an uncut original in need of restoration... You planning to keep the big tires and all on it?

I am keeping the tires, they are in real good shape, probably upgrade the wheels to something shiny. :bdent: I really just wanted a fun convertible to drive around and one thing lead to another and I started thinking about my old Bronco...................it's been all downhill from there. :banghead::bdent:
