Wow Bananabeek, that looks great. Only question is about the seatbelt holster. Weren't they aftermarket or dealer installed? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

Who said he is going to holster his seatbelt in it? It might have another purpose? Derringer?

Another big day today. Andy, Kent, Bob and Dave, thanks for all the help. By the time we restore my other car, I promise I'll have air conditioning in the garage. Today was brutal. Brutally hot, but damn good.

It's great that Jim, Kent, Andy and crew have done this already and know where to go to get all the good stuff our cars need. I love that carpeting. That will make my life easier as my car moves along. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

AppBiz makes pretty nice German Perlon kits too.
Your car looks great, Jim. When you do the "white" one, are you going to do a GT? |

Well I think we pretty well wrapped it up today. It’s going to alignment in the morning and hook up vapor recovery lines to engine shroud and air box. DONE (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
