  1. Thanks Roger! The early Georgia episodes are my favorite and this is my favorite look for the General Lee. I like the earlier darker tan interior more than the later light colored interior. Here is some more work I did on the interior. I painted the interior seats and door panels in Tamiya acrylic XF-59 Desert Yellow which is actually a dark tan color that's a good match to the saddle tan interiors in the 69 Chargers. The dash board, rear speaker deck and the kick panels in front of the doors panels are painted a darker color. It's a mix of Testors acrylic leather and dark tan. These areas were a darker color than the seats and door panels in 69 Chargers. The carpeting is made with Champagne colored embossing powder I got from Michael craft store. I painted on some Testors acrylic clear and poured the powder on top. It gives the look of carpeting. The center console is painted to look like wood grain although it isn't showing up to well in the pictures. I painted the inset in the dash Testors acrylic silver and then painted Tamiya acrylic flat black on top. The Tamiya acrylic paint is easily removed with Windex where as the Testors acrylic paint will not be removed with Windex. I used a toothpick slightly moistened with Windex to remove the black paint around the gauges and to pick out the details of the radio and some buttons. The red button on the left was painted after this was done. It was sealed with Testors acrylic clear. The trim around the center console, door handles and the straight molding towards the top of the door panels is done with Bare Metal Foil. The window roller handles, round Charger emblem(in the top of the door panels), and trim around the shifter area are done with Testors acrylic silver paint. I also added some Bare Metal Foil trim on the head rests but haven't taken any pictures yet.
