    Thinking about what to do for upholstery?Kind of stuff I do when I'm out of parts for a time!
    If you can make your self a drawing.
    Trying to think ahead some on what to do helps on my old rod. This time,I know I will not put it back all black like it was=too hot to set on in Florida sun,but back then the black vinyl was a free-B from Nuwt.
    Anyway I'm painting rod the same way ,all hi gloss black,with the yellow motor.
    Thinking black and yellow upholstery to match. But this time, were we're sitting mostly yellow with black outer framing.
    Here's how I'm working out my ideas. I first make my self a drawing with just out lines shown in fairly plan photo,no detail and copy that a few times so I can then add detail a few other ways.
    I only did 1/2 the detail here cuz I got lazy after trying to do too much on the first drawing in next post.,but same design both sides with black about 5 or 6in. panel down center
    I'm liking #2 drawing cuz door an side panel match seat best,both have two yellow roll-n-plates panels. Rug all black.
