Panel truck interior

Any other panel owners interested in starting an interior picture thread? Kinda self-serving since I have no interior and am wanting to attempt myself. Any pics of your interior build would be priceless--all pics including professional jobs are more than welcome! Thanks for your help

Nice looking truck! Check out 56panelford and Capt'n Phillips. They may have some pictures of their interior and they are both beautiful panels. There are many others here too, hopefully they will post some pics for you.

Hey....I'm in! Here is a shot before I decided that the grey lower side panels and floor carpet needed a redo.


This is a shot of the other side after the redo


The secret??? Believe it or not I decided to use the Duplicolor Vinyl / Fabric Spray Paint. It works great! I couldn't believe the results. Probably because I went with a darker dye color (flat black). Three cans did the whole back end. Such a deal!

This is the front cab area. It's do for a few mods in the near future. I'm going with a set of high back buckets instead of the split bench that I current park my butt on. This will allow for a center console to mount my floor shifter and electronics without butchering up the trucks dash any further than it has already. It will also house my electric window switches so that I can ditch the ones mounted on the door panels.

Not close yet

Since by body is still on a dolly with a big hole cut in the plywood floor, I'm only an interested onlooker for now. It would be great to see what guys are doing with the rear. It's a big space.

I don't have better pics right now, but as I bought it (po had a boat interior guy do the interior).



I'm putting in new lights (49-50 ford car) and speakers (modified f100 front speaker grilles) to hide the holes:



Found some more from the ad when I bought it:

I got a response from 56FordPanel and thanked me for the link to this thread.
He's waiting on his seats and pieces to get back from the upholster and will come and post pix of his interior as he gets them. If I remember right, he's doing bucket seats with a center console. Should look pretty good when he's done.

Thanks for the responses guys!. I'm only in the planning stage right now. Definitely wanna do some sound deadening and insulation before any panels go up. Also, trying to figure the best looking way make a console around my lokar shifter...it's the vintage type--about 23" with a couple of bends...might do an overhead console up front too.

I'm curious to see how long it lasts. It's hard for me to believe that you can change up the color of fabric/carpet with just a rattle can but, so far...so good!

Now here's an idea. I'm considering doing this mod. This was done for wheel chair access but I can see converting mine to a similar configuration to haul my customers motorcycles. Hmmmm....me thinky me likey.

Yep, I like the lift gate...seems more practical for accessing cargo
Capt'n, any pics of the install of your headliner and side panels?
