Hi Albert,

Nice to meet you at NOCC.

Any word on the body?

I went to try to meet Micky Hale but he wasn't at the tent.

Are you going to make it an SS 396 or stay 300 deluxe all the way?

For example blacking out the back cove, looks to be frosty......

NO, NO, NO.....this is a Super Clean Rust Free 1969 300 Deluxe Post Sedan....and this is what she shall remain....No &quot;SS396 Clone&quot; here.

Wait until you see the NOS &quot;300 Deluxe&quot; Emblems that are going on.

Albert please post a picture of them....I love the &quot;300 Deluxe&quot; emblem, so stylish....very Frank Lloyd Wright looking.

Most of the original interior looked reusable/perfect, I am guessing seats and headliner material needed?

PS: 300 deluxe all the way, except no flat hood I hope.

Re: 69 300 deluxe ZL-1 project
 
I've had 50/50 luck with SMS. I got some NOS material dated exactly to when my Gramma's 75 Firebird's interior was manufactured. It was a dead-on color match of the saddle material but it was backed with some hard canvas-like material and not stretchable. My upholsterer ended up only being able to use it to make the piping that goes between the pieces. We ended up reusing the original panel that had abrasions on it. Luckily, it was the piping that had to be repaired in the first place, as it was shredded by the shoulder harness dragging across it.

So I guess the moral of the story is that you might get NOS material that matches the color but not the original application - like me getting piping vinyl instead of upholstery vinyl.

Alss 11-16-2013 06:59 PM

Re: 69 300 deluxe ZL-1 project
 
Steve...same issue here..canvas backed..non stretchable..trying to source it elsewhere. Not much luck yet:(
