:thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: Attachment 58705 Attachment 58706 Attachment 58707 this weekend i put the guts and glass back in the doors. i used nylon washers under all the fasteners... still haven't scratched the paint *knock on wood* next weekend i'll get the windshield and rear window installed, and maybe if the weather is fair i'll get out on the road and season the brake rotors. hope to be cruising by the summer solstice. thanks for checking in! :lateral: danny |
I keep going back and forth between, a dark charcoal gray (almost black), a screaming but classy red, or crisp white when the time comes for me to do metal work and paint the car. The GTO makes a very, very convincing case for white!
You've been a busy man Danny, you'll be touring in the GTO in no time soon!:relax: |
Looking great! For the first time in my life I wish I left my car the factory white. I love all the little details you've done. Can't wait to see more

It's been almost two weeks since last post. I need updates. Even small one's.
That's what makes it so fun to read & view. I'm very proud of you, your story, and history of the car. Your in the home stretch... :popcorn2: Roger |

guys, thank you so much for your interest in this project! it's construction season again here in alaska and as a result i have had very little time to spend with the car in the last few weeks. straatsma still has the grilles but i went up to his place yesterday to pick up the hood scoops and the emblem because he was done with those. Attachment 58878 Attachment 58879 i've still got my sights set on getting the windshield and the rear window installed but i need a day off from work to make it happen. my original goal was to be road-ready by the summer solstice but it's starting to look like a rescheduling for fourth of july weekend might be more realistic. i'll try to update again as soon as i can achieve some more progress. thanks for staying tuned! :lateral: danny |
Sweeeeeeeet!
You're at a great stage in your build Danny. You'll be banging gears in no time. Try to enjoy this last phase - it's sweet hanging the new candy on there! Always enjoy checking in...:cheers:

feels nice to think i made the right choice going original. thanks for your comment! Quote:
at this point every little step is very exciting and i am looking forward to rowing through the gears on the long weekend for independence day (weather permitting). Attachment 58892 Attachment 58893 Attachment 58894 Attachment 58895 got sunday off yesterday so i made my way back to town and enlisted some help from a friend to get the rest of the glass installed. everything went smooth, and as far as i can tell the glass work is finished. the original back glass cleaned up nicely and it looks really good now that it's safe and sound where it belongs. i didn't get the mouldings in place yet so i'll have to do that next time i'm back in town with a day off. always moving forward, and stoked for a test drive in the very near future! :lateral: danny |
Looks great! Digging the white!
