That's a great job bringing those seats back to a respectable appearance. I have never owned a vehicle with a light-colored interior, and for as much of a PIA the upkeep on dark colors is, I can only imagine what you have to go through for light colors.

Yeah...this is the second light colored leather car I have. One thing that's an absolute no no is jeans. You can't wear any jeans as they stain the seats very quickly. But even softer fabrics can stain...so you do need to clean them quite often. I try to do so once a month.

Fortunately, it might be easier to flip back up. :)

That'd be a C4 Corvette! Very cool inded! That's my favourite Vette! The digital instrument cluster on that one is retro cool!

What year is that Typhon?

^^^^^^
It is 1996 and I am the original owner.  But it was a few previous years that the instrument cluster was all digital.  Then the car buffs started complaining that they felt a hot rod should have gauges.  So Chevrolet brought gauges back. 

In my picture you can see a screen flanked by gauges left and right.  I can select which digital reading to show in the screen of any gauge, along with speed limit and fuel info, using the buttons to the upper right.



KDC is right, though.  Today's Corvettes have more of a European look.
