Great work. Reminds me of the 68 Vette the guy across the street had when I was 12 years old. Same color in and out.

Thanks for the "finished" pics. Looks great. Just one thing... Unless I'm mistaken, it looks like you might have swapped the shift console front extension pieces. At least, the fit on the right one (shown in your interior pic) isn't correct...and it doesn't look like that piece could ever fit right in that spot. [Don't mean to rain on a nice parade.]
