Well here's pictures of the car finally painted! It's before the clear coat so it doesn't look quite as good. I think my dad did a pretty damn good job. Especially lining up the stripes. He even put his initials on it.

Here's pictures of us tearing the old carpet and installing the new carpet I bought off ebay for $115 shipped. It dropped in nicely with just minimum trimming and looks great!

The old: Looks horrible, I know.

Can't get new carpet and not get seat covers! Especially when your seats looked like mine! Take a look:

Before pics....

New seat covers sitting on Dads '66 Satellite. Don't let him know. Haha. Also, the day before my seat covers arrived, my boss at Advance gave me this steering wheel cover that out of a stroke of luck, matched my new seat covers! Unfortunately, it doesn't fit my steering wheel so I just kept it off.

Seat covers on! They look awesome and really tie the whole interior together.

Thanks to Chaotic94's "how to" thread on switching to LED's in the interior, I changed all my lights to red, including the shifter indicator light. They look pretty darn good.
