Junk yard run today...picked up a few things and here are some pics of other things I'm working on. Leather wheel cover out of a Jag..free.  I like free.  Headboard I'm gonna break down and use some of the pieces for my bed headboard...w/marble inlays in the posts which I may use as a port way into the bed area.  I picked up some wooden door panels to copy and will be mounting my window switches and made these leather door pulls. And I was able to find an original bicentennial (76) flag and put it on my headliner. Weird but I'm really happy with that. It finishes the space between the 2 wooden strips I put on.  it for now.
