Yates's Cadillac adventures

[yates ™]

If I do the interior I was going to talk to the guy that did the interior in that one but not it his prices have increased that much

 

[07Burb]

I wonder if his price was just for the show. Surely 30k isn't the going rate for that lol

 

[yates ™]

He is pretty expensive but does amazing work, I think that was made up for the show.

 

[yates ™]

Same guy and I think this was $30k

@07Burb needs to step up his '87 game....

That looks great, but I'm sure that was retardedly expensive. Every panel in it 100% custom hand stitched...

Dude does amazing interiors, he is 10 hours away and I would gladly bring my car to him to redo the interior but not for $30k, lol.

 

[jerryjoe28]

I would need everything changed cause I would change to brown and tan.

[yates ™]

I have to budget my fun, unfortunately.

 

[Young28]

yea i know. sucks growing up lol.

 

[yates ™]

So a guy on another forum made this...

 

[jerryjoe28]

when i got the 65 it had green interior ..... had the seats recovered, new carpet, headliner and had to paint/dye everything else

It has it's moments but I miss the carefreeness of being young and having vehicle funds.

I honestly thought this interior was tan all the way until bought it, lol. It doesn't look nearly as green in person. It will get done in time but the interior is in good shape so not high on the priority list, would rather have on wires and vogues first.

 

[jerryjoe28]

yeah the seats had been recovered DARK green when i bought mine so it had to go fast!

This is a light olive green that looks tan most times but in direct light looks green, if that makes sense. The guy included a black top dash piece and new black carpet but not sure I want to go that route.

I need to label and box up all my parts for the 48 so that they do not get lost/mixed up and then sort out the parts included with the Caddy out of the trunk and get those boxed/labeled. Maybe I should build that shelf in the garage built that I keep talking about cause I can't fit all these plastic bins on the floor, lol.
