pimp my ride

I've been watching the show 'Pimp My Ride' on MTV.. Actually, I'm more of a VH1, CMT kind of middle aged guy.. But 'Pimp' has some pretty neat ideas. (as long as you have tens of thousands to throw at your truck)
Anyway, one truck they did was an 85 Ford Ranger. (orange) The interior was what caught my eye. They did a vinyl and tweed seat with flames that where scupted into the foam padding.... they also used this effect on the head liner and the door panels.
My 78 Chev doesn't have a headliner, just painted steel. I've been planning a headliner to quiet the interior. Anybody have links, tips, or books on upholstery like this??
And just for the heck of it, I'm posting a pic of my truck. Never posted pictures here. Hope it comes out.
And thanks in advance for the help. I've learned a ton from you guys (and gals)..
Craig
