Took a break from the Trans Am project but figured it was time to start putting the dash back in. The repro dash fit better than I thought.

New going in

We dip the pad in the water, then the Cerium Oxide and buff. If it starts drying out. we re dip the pad in the water to keep it wet.

Thanks!

Got the restored dash bezel in yesterday

Interior Update!
 

Our upholsterer finally got around to working on the front seats and the door panels which were supplied by "Legendary Auto Interiors". Our guy told us it's the "Best" trim he's ever seen for these cars and was very impressed with the product!

Here's the front seat.

With regard to the door panels, we were able to do fiberglass repairs on the upper plastic reinforcement and the well priced door panels came out great!!!

Any updates? Just picked up a really nice Gold 1980 Firebird myself.

The Trans Am has been sort of in Limbo lately due to a '67 Firebird 400 project.

We did get the Custom Auto Sound Radio in

Trans Am is looking awesome. :thumbsup: Did you restore the gauges? If so, can I ask how you did it? Those gauges look brand new.

Is this car done?

what happened to the tread and why are the pictures deleted. can't follow the progress with out visuals.

Sorry about that. Had to make room on my Photobucket account.

The car is running now and took a few photos today.

Also, here's a Youtube video of the build

So what's the plan for the car now? I think it turned out great. The solar gold paint looks fantastic.

Beautiful car!!
