    Started working on the seats tonight. No it won't go faster, but the wife won't ride in it until I do. Hmm might take my time at it....:D Didn't get the seat bottom totally done tonight, but I can see what it will look like.

    LeBaron Bonney, got the entire kit for the interior. This is the check pattern rather than the mohair.

    Not bad for an amateur with no skills. At least the pleats line up.

    New plug wires (by the foot) from Rhode Island Wiring. Black with green tracers to match the Simmons head. Time to buy a quality crimper....

    Extreme leakless pump from Jim Rupert. That is one sharp looking pump!
    May need to change the ***le of the thread. FINALLY found a garage near the house to keep the car in. 20 minutes away and at least it's in the same state. LOL

    Well best of both worlds.... the diamond block is getting hot tanked this week and just got the original motor running in the car (again). I do have the sickness. When I pull the motor to put in the Diamond block I will be going all out on that motor for the next few years ... full pressure oil. Overhead valve something.... hahahhaah
