How'd you go about converting all the tudor interior panels to black? Did you dye it all? What about the carpet? Looks fantastic, glad to see it moving. I'd suggest some lesser sidewall tires though, maybe something like 255/40/18 Those things look like balloons

I used PlastiKote black vinyl paint to do all the interior panels. I got new carpet from Rock Auto and will get a headliner redone locally. Rear tires will be replaced with something smaller. 285/50 is an odd size and hard to find too so I will go with Nittos. Maybe same size as the fronts, not sure yet.
How's the quality on that carpet? Holes pre-cut for various wiring, etc?
1990 MGM: $50 E7 heads, HO cam, Holley SysteMAX lower intake, HO upper intake with an Explorer TB. LSC ECM. Lincoln logs into stock dual exhaust. K&N drop in air filter. Wide ratio AOD, 2400 converter with a 3.08 one tire fire out back. Car is less slow now. Then there's the '92 Beater. Dual 2.25" exhaust with shiny tips. Rumbles nice. Super slow. Burns oil too.

The carpet material is nice quality. It comes with OEM looking padding and molded rubber pad for the driver, like OEM. I opted for the premium carpet which is thicker than the regular one. It's molded to fit the floor and fits pretty good. None of the holes are precut, you gotta do that yourself. I actually prefer to cut the holes myself. It also requires a little trimming around the door sills as they leave extra material there.
All the seats are out of Marauder which are already black so didn't have to do anything with them. I painted the door panels with same vinyl paint including the carpet on the bottoms.

The floor pans are different so outer rails require a spacer for the seats to sit straight. Also have to drill a new bolt hole on the outer rail about an inch over.
