Newly finished Full Custom Leather/Porsche Plaid interior in 1963 VW Beetle

Because there's nothing like pushing yourself to your limits - we've just finished a full body-off, custom build in 75 days. Which gave me 25 days to do the interior. This was only my second interior, and my first experience of working with leather. Even though I was pretty nervous about it to start with, I actually found it much easier to work with than vinyl.
Those digital gauge face plates were quite challenging, but not as challenging as the ragtop headliner, in plaid - which is pattern matched both horizontally and vertically
We managed to finish it the day before it was due to be shown at Bug-a-Paluza in Chattanooga, TN, where it took out Best of Show - Best Interior.
