Sorry for the diversions, M.T.!!
In an effort to do my part to help get back on track with the subject of your thread, here's what I've been doing to the interior of my '66 Ford F100 lately.
Starting in 1965, Ford offered a factory option they called the "Ranger package" before they actually created the "Ranger". This package consisted of bucket seats and an optional console. The seats were '66 Mustang buckets on special brackets and the console was '64 Falcon style.
My truck came with a factory bench seat that had been recovered in white tucknroll with dark green piping. They were coordinating with the Holly green dash & Wimbledon white cab. It had grown weary so I decided to convert to the Mustang buckets.
I bought the Mustang seat frames and recovered them with a TMI Sport II upholstery kit in the factory "Parchment" color. The Sport II updates the old seats with larger bolsters and a more sporty look & feel.
It's still a work in progress but here's where I am so far:

I opted for the '63 Falcon console instead of the '64

I sprayed the door panels & door pockets with vinyl upholstery paint in "parchment"

Since I've relocated the fuel tank out of the cab, I'm working on a "cover" for the back of the cab. Also have new Holly Green carpet which has not yet been installed. Many other details to attend to as well but since it's my daily driver, everything happens in usable stages....
