Not original but Club Sportsman style seats from England.
Attachment 48350894 Seats will be the only bling on what is a pretty dull looking car. I keep hearing from friends what color are you going to paint it? Nardo Gray is the paint not the primer. Shifter will be black. It was red when I bought the rebuilt transmission. |
Starting to add some trim and electrical.

I have the body and he has our new frame and old rolling chassis. https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...84bed4608.jpeg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cor...e2aedc550.jpeg Fully welded replacement frame. I built a metal body dolly. I am stripping the paint down to bare fiberglass. It is a slow process for me. |
