Major change in interior plans

This is the same car I posted above. It has a vdx gauge but they customized its color to match the interior somehow.

Those looks like the silver faced VHX gauges to me. I think Dakota Digital has the best set of gauges on the market. I don't think anyone else makes back-lit stepper motor gauges with a programmable information center and expansion modules. I like the matching clocks too.

Well I did a pretty detailed compilation of materials and figured 10-20% waste depending on material. I got 8 yards of carpet (60" wide), 5 yards of headliner (54" wide), 1 hide of perforated leather, 3.5 hides of non-perforated orange/tan leather, and 2 hides of charcoal leather for a total of 6.5 hides. My measurements were conservative and I planned for 20% waste on the leather which I think is high, knowing Larry .

I really don't see a lot of difference between my Nomad and a 57 Hardtop with a fully upholstered trunk. The carpet is almost identical, the headliner is less than one yard more (24" in length), and the trunk is about the same size as my Nomad cargo area. I have a seat structure almost identical to a package tray. My numbers come up 1/2 hide larger than for a 57 HT which seems very reasonable to me.
