I'm looking to put burnt orange Leather upholstery in the bird but can't find any hides in this color to purchase. If you know where I can get some, I'd appreciate the info. Threads below to show color.
Thanks Lenie

I swear you and I are building the same car! I fell in love with a black camaro with a beautiful shade of orange leather called "Havana Rust" some years back. I wanted to incorporate that color into the trim of my own Firebird. Last I saw you were still in primer, what color have you decided for the paint? I'm going with something similar to that burnt orange color Dodge used on their Daytona series Ram. Let me see if I can find info on that car...

Here you go: http://www.ecacp.com/showroom.aspx this car was featured in Super Rod magazine a few years ago. The orange color doesn't really pop in these photos, but it is a beautiful color. I believe I still have the mag at home, if you'd like I can get the name of the interior guy. Maybe he can get the color you want. Let me know.

Hi Slyck, Thanks for the reply. I've never seen that camaro before but the car I'm building has similarities. I'm going Black with satin black exterior w/black and orange interior. Thanks for the post, really enjoyed the pics.
