Rick got me hooked up with a company in the u.k. that still has this stuff. They said that porsche had six different color combos of this stuff. Mine is dark blue/cream/grey.

Driver seat is a corbeau classic and the passenger is a run of the mill late model 914 seat.

Now shoes and a shirt that matched the interior would be way cool.
BTW the interior is cool without the shirt & shoes.

humph, I was wearing them when they were COOL! still have a pair in the closet... I either wore them or my fly-ass fold-down-two-color chuck taylors!
Posted by: tdgray Jun 9 2005, 03:06 PM
Damn the Vans would be cool might have to get me some.
What I would really like is one of the Jobbers I used to have. If I had one I wouldn't have this sunburn on my neck from working in the yard all day Saturday.

Back when, I used to have them in all sorts of funky colours and prints.
They're the coolest shoes around

I had a 76' Chev crew cab dualie, with the same interior ( slighty smaller squares), I liked it, looked racy.
It had a build big block and a "trick", built, automatic transmission.
I would put it in first gear at a traffic light, (always next to a camero or equal) stomp the gas at the first sign of a green light and let the trans go to "first gear detent" about 6000 rpm and it would chirp all four big, wide 16 inch tires and leap forward about fifteen feet going into second, blew off many a muscle car for about 90 yards.
It got the same gas mileage driven hard or soft, 9mpg........

No need for a jobber. Take the scraps and make a bucket hat and get the Vans
