Marc,

	I missed that show. Went to their web site, was that a '91 Ford Explorer? 
All of the rest seemed to be cars and pickup trucks.

	I have seen similar treatment done to make custom speaker housings for 
vehicles. They used a nylon mesh to make curved surfaces, coated it with 
resin, after that hardened they add a couple of layers of fiberglass. But 
that does not sound like what they did to the console. Could be they added 
a coloring agent to the resin? this can be done.

	Overhaulin" is not meant to be instructive but entertaining (maybe) so 
they cut a lot of the information out. Could be they do not want people to 
be able to do what they do for a living(?).
