Ep 10. Interior Creature Comforts

In season 1 episode 10 of PowerNation: Detroit Muscle, titled "Interior Creature Comforts," the team focuses on completing the interior of their 1962 Corvette project. They start by installing sound deadening material and a new carpet before moving on to the seats and upholstery.

The team has a custom set of seats made, and they fully disassemble and rebuild the seat frames themselves. They also install new foam and custom covers to match the car's sleek and aggressive exterior. Once the seats are in place, they tackle the door panels, which they make from scratch using a mold they create in-house.

Next up is the dash, which they rebuild with custom gauges and switches that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing, while also integrating a stereo system. They also take the opportunity to install a vintage-looking wood-rimmed steering wheel, which adds to the car's classic appeal.

To finish off the interior, the team installs a custom center console and makes use of every inch of space to provide storage and functionality. The console includes a cup holder, USB charging ports, and a hidden compartment for valuables.

Throughout the episode, the team shares their tips and tricks for achieving a high-quality interior finish, such as using specialized tools and taking the time to do things right. They also highlight the importance of considering functionality as well as style, and of paying attention to every detail in order to create a cohesive overall look and feel.

By the end of the episode, the team has transformed the once-unfinished and uninspired interior of the Corvette into a comfortable, modern, and stylish space that perfectly complements the car's overall design. With a finished interior, the team is now one step closer to completing this impressive restoration project and hitting the road in style.
