I'm mid way through my van build and starting to plan my interior. The body colour now silver mink. I'm tossing up between red and black. I've purchased a brougham split bench seat, a gts dash and gts steering wheel. So what do you guys think? Cheers Jase.

Agree, if you choose silver mink paint have to have Goya red trim.

You can get the photobucket app for the iphone, which will allow you to do it al from the phone.
Cheers,

WOW Looks like it was in great shape to start with. I am green with envy. If you want to do something "Period" relevant for the van colour combo wise, back in the panovan days I remember most people would go for the Black trim look.....but then there were also those who dared to do stuff like Burgundy velvet, Red Velvet, dark chocolate velvet, even blue velvet..... Oh and don't forget the tuck and roll finish in the back with the mini bar, and the 6" black and white TV.

I reckon your idea of a "Factory" look red interior with a Prwm/Brougham split seat would be neat.

Good luck. Please keep us updated with progress.
Cheers
Nick

Thanks Nick. Yeah Definatly keen to go with a 'factory' look theme. I've got a fresh cast headed 383 chev that made 419 HP on an engine dyno in bendigo. I'm not dressing the engine up to much, just want it neat under the bonnet with hidden wiring. I have a 350 turbo box and a 9 inch running 3.5 gear and a true trac. I've had the van for 10 years and I'm hoping to have it back together for my 30th in August. Cheers Jase.
