Thanks guys! I appreciate all the comments and feedback....good and bad. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] I'm going for gold here...well....actually Quartz. Out of 1000 points, I think that's somewhere around 350. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/frown.gif[/img]

More updates a coming! There's not much left to do so not a whole lot of pics left to take, but I'm sure I can come up with some that'll keep this thread alive. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]

Then of course, I gotta get a going on that Mustang. That car, last I checked, doesn't seem to want to restore itself!

Finishing up some of the loose ends with still more to do. I got the proper green stenciling for the coil, and I'm working on the voltage regulator yellow stenciling. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

And some engine bay decals....Coolant and Emissions. The last shot shows the original headlights on the passenger side, but later narrow fluted halogens on the driver's side. I'm searching out for an NOS set of the narrow flute 4000/4001 bulbs to complete the front end look.....Well....Those and waiting on the grille to come back from Shine on Me Restorations.

Rear interior all buttoned up! Original seat upholstery, seat belts, arm rests, arm rest bases, interior panels.

And since this is essentially a new car again, what new car doesn't have crappy predelivery floor mats in it? I know! These are NOS.....The tree they were made from was planted in 1969, so that qualifies, right? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

Starting into the dash. What's left? Major items are dash, steering column, glass installation. More to come!!
