I would like to finish the trunk in my 79 GP. Does any one have any pictures of what they have done to there trunk. If so I would appreciate if you could send me pictures to give me some ideas.

I'm not very good at posting photos, but if you go through some of the aftermarket suppliers websites, especially the Buick Regal and GN sites, there are photos of trunk panel and upholstery kits that are available. I made up a fabric over for my spare tire, using the same material as the trunk floor carpet, and made up a temporary cover, out of the same material, that will hang from the trunk hinges when the trunk is open at car shows, to cover the area above the rear wheels. It allows me to hide small items out of sight behind the cover. Hope this helps.

Even though mine is an 83, basic design principles are the same. Here are just some ideas of how I went about it.
