    Dropped the Cat off at the upholstery shop this morning. Getting front and rear seats done, and repairing the boot cover for the convertable. Should have some pics by Wednesday. Gonna get some super comfy 80's velour in there.... Kidding, black naugahide type stuff in the original pattern.

        A damn shame so many nauga's had to die to get the hides to cover that expansive interior

          Naugahyde is just a fancy term for imitation vinyl. Kinda like that janitor who wants to be called a custodial engineer.

            Just cause you've never seen Naugas roaming the fields, eating whatever Naugas eat, and pooing whereever Naugas poo doesn't mean they don't hurt when you skin them to cover your large American interiors

              They graze in the same areas Jackalopes do.

                I distinctly remember reading that Jackalopes live in the sewer systems of large cities.

                So if they graze in the same areas, do they compete for food?

                Poor Naugas.

                  black seats in a convertible - sounds painful on a sunny day?

                        if a Nauga poos in the woods and no one is around...

                          Rest assured I will NOT be wearing a bikini while driving this car. That's for home use only. Also, fake imitation vinyl leatherette will be used exclusively, so no Naugas will be harmed in the uphostering of this vehicle. AND, I'm pretty sure all the poop has been removed, although a stray pellet may fall out of the dash occasionally.

                            We actually had a secretary at EPA (remember secretaries??!!) in tears as we explained all the tiny, cute little Naugas that had given their lives for the interior of her Formula. We left it at that. We explained that they live in the back jungles of South America (mostly Peru) and that they will soon be on the endangered species list. They are sometimes farm raised but that's actually worse as they are treated cruelly in that setting.

                            And glad that you're forgoing the Bikini - not that there's anything wrong with that in the privacy of your own igloo.

                                Looks great. I wouldn't leave the top down in the summer heat if you like the skin on your legs. That central valley cooks black vinyl.
