Finished the tops tonight. This actually came out better than the picture on the box so that makes me quite happy. Was a lot of work but well worth it, $300 for 48sf of “new” tops. ��

Wow, that looks super great. I like the color with the cabinets better than the old white top too.

Fitting up panels on my 68 RS Z. This is the first time in 50 years a hood has been on it. In 1972 the owner had a fender bender and at that time put a fiberglass one piece doghouse on it.

Road testing before detailing this 78 L82

Started trimming the shop.


When I'm done with the house and shop (doing most of the work by myself) y'all will see a level of craftsmanship on my car restorations unseen on this website. Unfortunately, that's not a good thing.

5 stalls, nice!!!

Yeah, he THINKS he has a lot of room. Like many here, that building will be full and he'll be planning the addition in a year...:grin:

Finishing up the detail on this 93 F250 I bought. Now I don't want to drive it:thumbsdown:

Love this comment. Soooooooo true.

Ooolala I like it!!! What’s the scoop?

Next project, off the lift and into the shop today. Time to get on it, I had to go back and look, it was painted in 2012 :eek2:. Body, frame, and convertible top are done, beyond that it needs EVERYTHING!

Nice. I hear ya on "time to get on it". All I've done is walk past all my stuff for 3 weeks now. Spring finally came around and we've been on a planting frenzy. Trees, shrubs, ferns, annuals in deck planters, etc. Growing season around here is short and fast and we have much to do to get the yard at this place to what we envision.
I did sell my '62 Impala, but need to swap the 350 back in over the next few weeks. Maybe a W engine in one of the C-10's over winter...:cool2:

My 86 square body dually had conversion van bucket seats and console added eons ago. Last week the vinyl from SMS (no affiliation) showed up (10 months by the way) so I’ve resumed my bench seat restoration.

The buckets and original back seat.

Ready to swap out. :)

Looks great, but you're going to miss the console/cup holder. Have any extra fabric to make a cup holder to sit on the seat ?

Maybe something like this will do the job.

It can, but only 1 cup at a time. I've read of them falling out or breaking at the mount and there goes the coffee/beverage all over.
I've seen these at large car shows and they are quite neat, but a little spendy. Bonus having the console again too.

Wish I was smart enough to post pics, but I got my grille cleaned, painted and installed with an nos Z/28 emblem. Got some brackets from the frame to the rad support with nos bushings. Also some misc bolts from fender aprons to the rad support. I lost my engine builder in April to Dementia. Taking it really hard. Gotta find a new guy. He was my engine builder since 1979.
