Re: Which interior do you like?

I like the new grey one personally. I think the red is just too much red.

I agree, red overload on the first one. Nice seat cover, did you have that done at an upholstery shop or did you buy a cover somewhere?

Re: Which interior do you like?

The red is too much. The new seat doesn't look right, too many colors. The gray doesn't work for me.

Re: Which interior do you like?

I disagree, the red was retro and cool. The grey looks like a new generic Chevy econo-box. Every new car has a grey interior.

Put the all red back in!! MOFWIW

Re: Which interior do you like?

I had a shop do the seat. I thought it had to much red. And I don't like vinyl seats.

Re: Which interior do you like?

Interior depends on what the outside of the truck looks like. The red interior would be really cool on a customized truck.

Re: Which interior do you like?

I kind of like the red. I'm sure a psychologist could name my defect, but I just sold a silver 69 Chevelle with red interior, red carpet, red dash, red vinyl seats, red visors, red headliner, etc, etc. and I liked it, too. Of course I've spent close to thirty years in red trucks with red flashing lights...maybe my rods and cones are messed up?

Gray seat looks much better. Took mine to the upholstery shop today for gray vinyl.

Re: Which interior do you like?

I like the grey more. Looks more comfortable. Even with the grey the red is still too much for me. If it were mine I'd change the carpet, and keep the red dash and doors more as accent pieces.

Re: Which interior do you like?

I gotta say I like the grey one better...the red one is just waaaaay to bright and the grey tones everything down...if the outside of the truck isn't super flashy the inside shouldn't be. But to each his or her own ideas.

If I say I like the red one better, are you going to change it back? ;o)

They both have a different appeal.

I like the new gray. But we all have our thoughts that suit us.

I am not going to change it back. I am nuts, but not that nuts. I would have changed the carpet, but I am to cheap. Here is a pic of the truck.

Re: Which interior do you like?

I like the painted door panels better, but like the old vinyl red seat. I never liked cloth seats in a 60-66truck, just never seemed right to me. It's your truck though, so it don't matter what we think. Truck looks great.

Re: Which interior do you like?

I like the square sewn red stuff, but the new interior certainly looks more contemporary and comfortable.

Re: Which interior do you like?

red is to red too buzy, other picture doesnt look right either doesnt match that great with all the colors or out side color combo....I say take the seat from picture #1 and stick it in picture #2 with black carpet itll look alot better then either pic 1 or 2!

Re: Which interior do you like?

I ike the red/white door panels, but personally would have done the seat red/white, kind of like an original style.

BUT it's your truck, and both do look good.

I'd just like to have either-mine is all mismatched right now! LOL!

Re: Which interior do you like?

I'll throw my 2 cents worth in. I like your truck and I may have mentioned it before I'm "planning" to do the same paint scheme on my 64.

The seat being the only part of the interior that is that color (actually looks blue in the pic) makes it stick out too much. If you put gray carpet in it and I think would look better. Top pic to show what I'm talking about.

Personally I like a saddle tan with red. Lower pic of that also has matching carpet.

Neither one is my truck.
