Last spring I purchased my 72 and thought I would show the work I have had done up until now. I had the seats recovered, paint, new retro sound radio, and did the dash. The one pic shows how the dash looked went I got it, I think they were trying for the metal look.

Looks great! I too have a Super72, just bought 6 months ago.

So the seats, was that a kit or a local shop/custom job?

Thank You everyone
the seat upholstery, form and the burlap came from Jbugs and found a shop here that only charged 100.00 for the work. Tomorrow I am doing the new fuel hoses that are connected the gas tank and all the vent hoses in the trunk area

Wow - that is freaking beautiful. I went 2-tone with my '72's seats, but I gotta admit that full-sapphire blue looks fantastic. Nice work!
