We have done a whole lot of custom interiors in this shop. From our flagship truck ChaChing, to our restomod F100; we've shown you guys what goes in to fabricating and assembling a custom cab for these old trucks. What we HAVEN'T shown you though, is just what goes in to making some of these one-off custom bench seats. We thought about ordering a nice bench for our LS Swapped C10, but this bagged and supercharged Chevy needed something with a little more flair. So we called in our friend Lee from E3 Customs to help us shape and stitch a seat from scratch. We're taking the original bench from our 1975 C10 and stripping it all the way down to the frame. We got some brand new foam that we have to cut down to give us a nice cushy place to sit at the right height to cruise around town. Then, once the seat is the perfect shape, we're sending it off with Lee back to his shop to get some custom stitching done on our leather. By the end of the episode we're going to have a diamond stitched, genuine leather, custom cut and shaped bench seat for our LS swapped, supercharged and slammed Cheyenne C10! Next step? Finishing up the interior and picking up our custom wheels from Vossen! Then we're finally hitting the road!
That dude killed it on the seats….. great looking design and smooth execution. Keep them videos of bad ass builds coming S2S!
Thank you! Lee really came through with the seats!
I agree. Great job. Where does one find the stencils for the diamond pattern?
Great Job on the seat.
Spotted DDE Lamborghini get work done! Nice
Thanks! 👍 The guys over at E3 work on some crazy stuff!
The bench seat looks great. The color and stitching go well together
Thank you!
Enjoyed the video. E3 really knows their craft. The interior looks great.
Couldn't agree more!
Damn! That bench is incredible!
That seat ok, if you like hand crafted products made with high quality materials. Myself, I like to install cheap Chinese items until I've spent enough to just buy a quality product!! LOL!!!🤣
Oh we've lived that cycle too! lol I COULD buy one nice one that'll last forever for x amount... ORRRR I could buy one for half of that and replace it 8 times!
What do you get when you put a bench seat onto a hydraulic press?
.....
A bench press. 😁😜🤟
We're going to publish a book with all your puns by the end of this year! lol
Dope as hell. I’m trying to do my own interior and bench seat and chose real leather. It’s crazy how cheap a whole hide actually is be my first time not gonna try anything super fancy.
Good luck! From what we've learned and heard, it's just about being patient. And of course the old "measure twice, cut once"
I know nothing (and have never seen anything) about how custom interiors come together so this was super cool to see. It came out awesome!
Glad you liked it! We don't get the opportunity to really see too much of the process either. So when we got the chance to look over Lee's shoulder as he was working, we wanted to bring y'all along too!
I hate seeing an expensive car with Montana plates (the Ferrari at @ 8:49). If you're that rich you can afford to pay your taxes.
Nice seat. Now spend some time on making the door shut like butter.
Working on it!
Gonna look good but older seats are supposed to be thick and cushy for sitting. Modern shit Is like sitting on a plank. MORE FOAM. euro style seats suck ass... compare a 96 grand cherokee seat to a 2005 and you'll see.
ok!
Salvage or Savage you still need to be comfortable!! That bench looks great 👍
Awesome installation, Lee and thanks everybody at the S2S shop.
See you next week, Mike!!
Thanks for the support!
I love the fabrication you guys do but it was great to see some of the other trades👌🇦🇺
We love getting to highlight the talents of all the guys that come in to help us out!
That`s the Bruce Lee of seat making...
Awesome content as always, does Lee have a, utube channel? his work is totally awesome and very interesting. Stay safe and mostly stay strong!! 😁
You can check out the shop's work on TH-cam at @e3upholstery! They only have one video so far though
@@SalvagetoSavage awesome thanks 😁
Yo great job, I have got to work on a few cars they have done, always quality work. That leather man, you make one mistake you gotta order more and hope it matches love it when they just kill the interior Job to tie it all together.
It is a very unforgiving material! That's why we love relying on the guys at E3 so much. Especially Lee. Just masters at what they do!
@@SalvagetoSavage
Yeah I built most everything so I did not need stitch work just layers that held the other down or whatever, I work with an upholstery shop now that grew up with the guy from E3 .
Some of the opportunities have been fantastic. Can’t wait to see what happens this year.
@@SalvagetoSavage BTW love the show it’s great I look forward to watching the next episode. 👏🏻👏🏻
DAMN!! Dime Bagged is gonna look as good inside as out!
Lee absolutely crushed it with these seats!
Can you make me one Same design but in black with red stitching for may 86 C10 or who can I contact you thank you
You gotta get in touch with the guys from E3 Customs Upholstery in south Florida for that!
IDK guys, I think I would have incorporated the scarring on the hide into the design. It doesn't get more authentic than that.
That wasn't a hide from our project. He just broke it out of the bin to show us different examples of what you can get when working with different quality of hides. The one that he got for this bench was dang near flawless!
The diamond pattern is popular but the water fall action is a nice touch! Nice!
Lee is absolutely killer when it comes to putting together these interiors!
Lee has a bananas crazy skill set. What a pro. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Always enjoy your episodes. Your work as well as the team you’ve built is world class. Well done Mikey!
Thank you so much!
I love the dollies as weights lol. Smart
Gotta use what ya got! lol
Leader in leather!!
E3 is no joke. That blue interior is for the DDE Lamborghini. I appreciate how you guys included the companies that work with you on projects. 👍🏽
We definitely couldn't do it without the help of the companies we work with!
Great helpful video thx
Glad you liked it!
Wow!!! The final product looks great, but that was a lot of work. Kudos to the gentleman that landed a helping hand on this job.
Much appreciated!
Can someone please tell me the name of the song that starts at 13:54
Where can I get them bolster kits?
That truck is mint! And now with a custom leather bench seat that is done and finalized to perfection! Who ever is the owner of that c-10 is going to have their mind blown as if they were at a grateful dead concert!!!!!! Whooooo!!! Job well done 👍 guys 👍!!! 2 thumbs up! Lol!
Link to the bolster kit
We ordered it through Lee at E3. They're the interior/upholstery shop that put it all together for us!
MORE GREAT CONTENT !!
Thank you!!
I just built a back seat for my 1950 Mercury. I needed this video 2 months ago. Nice video
Sorry we didn't put it out sooner! How did the seats turn out?
Not as good as these did 😆
