Here is my 55 chevy barn find stance...its probably going to have this stance for some time...bought this car a few months ago for my son, he wants to make it into a kind of Two Lane Blacktop style hot rod...55 210 2 door posts are kinda hard to find, so when this showed up on Craigslist I had to buy it. It has not been on the road since the late 60's, early 70's...3 speed manual with aftermarket floor shifter, 327.

The pressure .........reminds me of David Bowie's song..."under pressure"


It was imperative for me that the depth of the pleats (1/2") were spot on to the way the factory design them for that WOW factor.

Almost nobody gets them right when redoing these interiors.

Button depth was another issue and my upholstery nailed it perfectly!


All NOS materials were used.

I agree, he nailed the pleats perfectly, my 68 Caprice 32K mile original interior.

Nothing rides like the big Chevy with a 427 in front of her.

I had the 68 SS427 when I was stupid, just out of high school in 73 and sold it. Then, was stupid again 5 years ago when I sold the 67 SS427. SO, HOW’S MY STANCE IN THE GARAGE for me being dumb?

Took me a looooong time to take my eyes off the two cars and finally notice you sleeping in the car cover. Nice lot of 427 cars!
