Beautiful! Thank you for the great comments and compliments! Kent and Andy are a great team to have on a project of this magnitude. I'm really impressed. We may put power to the engine this Sunday. Hey Ed. I'm going to try and make the show, but it will probably be in the white car. Jim |

I disassembled the seat belts and had the hardware clear zinced. I also had them re sewn. Some upholstery shops won't sew them, for obvious reasons. I also have the center seat belt, but I think I'll be using the center tray with the hinged top. The center seat belt would look kind of weird with that type of tray. I'll have a picture of the center tray shortly. It was recovered and looks pretty good. Jim

Beautiful restoration.
I noticed that you used some sound deadening material on the firewall. Are you going to install it on the floor as well? What kind did you use? Dynamat? Great job. Bill. |

Hey Bill. Andy put it on. He's coming by tomorrow for our weekly build party. I'll find out and let you know. As far as putting it on the floor, I'm still debating that one. Thanks for the compliment. Jim. |
