Slick 60's

I was wondering if you guys can post some pics of some nice custom interior on 66's or any 60's year F100 or some kind of truck. I am trying to get ideas for my truck but not sure. The color of it is a dark metallic forest green with a TINY hint of pearl in it. I am wanting a light tan interior with a mohagany Flaming River steering wheel (going to do the bed floor in wood as well to match the steering wheel. Also going to put in bucket seats that will be light tan. But any pics of what gauges would look good, color of the carpet, center consoles, etc etc would be GREATLY appreciated. I have been looking around to get some idea's. As for gauges I am stuck between black faced, tan or classic inc gauges have some old looking style that have a silver turned look to them. I like old classy style guages, not race kind of digital.
Thanks a lot!

I have a green truck with a custom interior, you can chek out some pics in my album.

Ok sounds good, I will check your truck out! Thanks!

I just looked at your truck. It is VERY nice and I like the door panels and head liner. Did you custom make the headliner and door panels or are they the ABS plastic ones just covered? Looks great though and I like the gauges and engine turned backing. Are those tan guages or white (I cant tell).

The interior panels are the Roddoors panels. The dash cluster is a Roddoors panel that I worked with them to develop, as it covers the switch holes too. The engine turning is Haneline and the gauges are TPI out of Florida. The gauge faces are a antique white color.

That is a nice interior! The gauges sure aren't your average looking item, either.

I've had this place bookmarked for a couple years now. They've got a nice looking gauge panel too. However, you need the main outer metal panel from a standard cab (round gauge style) for this to mount to.

I don't think the price is unreasonable either.

Here's a few interior pics I've collected, mainly from eBay & not necessarily green.

Well here are a few pictures of interiors that I have colected over the years. Most of the are from guys on this board. Some are Stock some are custom but ALL are nice!

I like the body colored gauge panel, that's a cool idea.
Nice shifter knob, btw.

Thanks a lot for the pics and info guys! Those are some nice looking interiors for sure! It's hard for me to decide because in a way I like the more modern look on some things but then again I dont want to take away from the old classy stock look. I do know what I want to find first though before the door panels and headliner and such and that would be first to get my new bucket seats (which I do know where to get those and what I want, it's just getting the money to get them right now), then I want to get new gauges and guage panel (which I can't decide on Haneline or the JCmicrofinish ones) and then my carpet but I can't decide on the color because I am going with tan everything else but the carpet needs to either be tan or black and I do not know if black would look right with everything else tan. After those would come the steering wheel and knobs on the dash in billet if I can find them and then headliner and door panels but these would be later on down the road. The guages I do need because half of them dont work and look like crap.
I like that orange truck above with the mohagany wheel and tan, that looks very nice IMO.
Keep em comming if you want, I am getting some great ideas here!
Thanks again.

Stella is Vinnie's truck. Very nice Big Winder uni.

HAS ANYONE USED THE ROD DOORS KICK PANELS? I WAS GOING TO ORDER SOME BUT WOULD LIKE TO SEE THEM BEFORE I DO.JUST WONDERING IF THE COWL VENTS ARE CUT OUT OR NOT. THANKS

jva118 does have a good question there with the kick panels. I didn't think of that one. BTW, you might get yelled at about all the caps. Just warning ya so dont take it in a bad way please.

The kick panels are good. I mounted speakers in mine where they would recess into the cowl vents.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think the pics of Stella above use the Roddoors kick panels.

Custom interior in my 66,gray leather and cloth,lots of billet, 89 T-bird super coupe seats and console. Pictures in my album. Merle

Vinnie here, thanks for the kind words on Stella. I did use the roddoor kick panels. I had to cut out the vent openings. I ended up making a template out of cardboard to get it right. Make the cuts a little larger than you need for the fabric.

If anyone would like more pictures, send me your address and I'll try to dig some up.

prost66, where did you get your billet knobs? Looks pretty good. I like the UNI as well with the big tires.

I made all the billet parts.dash.pedals,knobs,battery box,exhaust hangers,master cylinder cover,door pulls,console cover,etc. Merle

If you want to have some door panels like the the orginal plastic panels look at mine. Its in my pictures for willy 3486. I also posted how to make them in the hints and tricks section. I figured out the original design by trialand error from pictures and the original trim. The pattern was easy to make.
