Finally slowed down enough to organize pictures of this 362 Peterbilt interior. This job was fun considering I only had the old pieces to go off of and the truck was close to 900 miles away.

@SmokinSCustoms ,
Nice!
I would love to be there for the install. Are you doing any special flooring?

@BigRig
I honestly don't know what they're using for flooring. This stuff's in a crate headed back to North Dakota. If they need help installing it, I'll have to have a plane ticket to get there.

Nice job!

Haha, I just got mine in the mail and hadn't had a chance to look at it yet. That was from GBATS2016. Actually got a really good parking spot that year. That was when the truck still had walking beam suspension under it. On the the way over I blew out a pinion seal and completely covered the back of the truck with 90wt gear oil. A quick trip to Walmart, two whole bottles of Simple Green, and an hour of time had it cleaned back off. GBATS is a awesome show to go to. Last year I got to meet Bob Spooner, guys a legend, he's put 6.5 million miles on his truck.

@SmokinSCustoms I hear ya brother, that's all part of it, old iron keeps you busy turning wrenches and plugging leaked but hey that's what's so fun about them and driving an old rig compares to nothing else! When I'm done with mine it's going to church on Sundays.

@SmokinSCustoms
How many yards of material did you end up using and what type of backing material are you going with?

@Bondo497
There is pretty close to 20yds of grey and maybe 5 yds of black used up on this project. The backing was 1/4in scrim sew foam on most of it.

@SmokinSCustoms I have 13 yards of vinyl for the sleeper walls, door panels, and dog house and 13 yards of velour for the headliner and seats, I hope I got enough.

What size is your cab? This one is the larger "big bunk" version.

@Bondo497
She's gonna be close.......... definitely start with the largest panels first.
@John
I can't either, I hope they send me pictures. I don't think they wanted to pay for my plane ticket to come up and install it, haha.
