Thanks!
The wood is solid black walnut. After shaping, sanding, etc., I applied two coats of mirror-coat to the wood face to give it all a high gloss. The seats are very cozy and you really notice after a long drive. I once drove the length of I-10 (Miami-Santa Monica) and didn't feel a thing, except when I ran out of gas twice. The gas gauge was broken. Here's another few shots of the rear console open. It has a magnetic closure, Fischer cupholder, two tequila glasses in leather holders, and a jigger of the best tequila on the planet: Casa Noble Reposado. Yeah, I went a little crazy. I also hooked up the center front console to charge my ipad while it plays the best of the 60's. Volvo Time Machine!
