'62 Custom leather interior
Just got a pic from my auto upholsterer. I love it, but still wish he could have got more of those creases out - Let me know what you think:

The interior looks great. I wouldn't worry about the wrinkles. It's leather. Besides the heat from the sun will probably calm them down. If it really bothers you if they don't relax they can be steamed.

Thanks guys - I am a perfectionist and he told me upfront what to expect with leather and some creases being inevitable. I love how it turned out and exactly what I was looking for with that older classic look.
