The seats were given a coat of black and then repainted with the red to give a more "used" look.
Here the seats are in place.
Control sticks were also installed.
And the trim lever.

Thanks Jim. Those seats look good. I've used that type of paint to paint clear slot car bodies a few years back. I assume one could apply a clear coat to them if you wanted a gloss finish. As I remember most of them had a slightly dull finish which would work well in some applications.

Mark,
The acrylic paints are easy to use, no odor, clean up with soap and water, dry fast, good coverage (even on bare wood), durable, come in a lot of colors and can be easily mixed to get unique colors.
Here are my seats after one coat of paint over the bare unsealed balsawood.

Very cool looking work, Gunny makes some nice stuff. Noticed you're using some lexan body paints could you elaborate on its effectiveness?

Gunny elected to use thin G-10 sheet to make the base side panel with balsa parts to flesh out the details. Here is our progress on the left side panels and seats.

After a long while, Gunny brought all of our ideas together using his genius for CAD design and production and his unique use of materials to create scale details. He delivered the first interior kit to me and we finally have cleared off the workbench and started on it. So here we go, first the box!
Opening to his 34 page step-by-step directions with full color pictures!!!
Then the goodies.
