    Looks really good. I'm digging the door panels.
    Such a nice interior reminds of me of just how god damn far from finished I am!
    Hope to see it in person Sat.

    Sorry dude, I would never paint this car. It's my favorite thing about it.

    I don't know, I never saw em. I'll ask Bruce when I next see him.
     
  8. Can you post a pic of the door panel?

    Edit- I looked at the first thread for the door panels. It turned out really nice. Not to blow smoke up you kulo but, this is one of the best cars on the HAMB as far as I'm concerned.

    Jokes on both you ***-hats...door moldings are the only ones not chrome yet. I gotta recover from this interior job and then have em plated. All the rest of the moldings and dash rail are plated, but the guy I bought all the stuff from did not have the door ones for whatever reason

    That is a transformation to be reckoned with. I probably would have stopped with adding an upper radiator hose and taping the window:D

    Looks great!

    Chris - what about another picture of the coupe taken from the side just like the one as a stocker - for a then-and-now type comparison ;)

    Neat interior BTW - I like it - Can I coupy it?

    Hey Chris, any way we can get a pic of that dash. Looks like what I am looking for? Thanks and the old girl looks amazing, love everything you have done.

    P.S.- just saw that this is my first post, man I have been lurking a long time.

    What part do you want? It's stock except the rail is plated.
