Whoa, I'd never looked at Tom's work closely before, it's pretty amazing. I have a couple parts that would look good with that finish, but I'm too busy to get around to sending the stuff his way right now. Maybe if I'm really picky I'll have him repaint the fake CF sill plates which I got that don't match the real stuff very well.
In other news, my dad came up with another possible name for our project. He wants to call it the "Getaway Car," because it will be a car, with a bunch of money from the bank tossed into it, that everyone will be trying to catch.
I quite like that one, I think it might even be be worthy of project title.
Finally, some fabric went on over the last couple of days:
We test fit the dash as well today, and got things fitting pretty well, but found that the mounting hardware on the top needed to be reinforced, as it fell off, so we (and by that I mean the editorial we, since I didn't do any fiberglass work), glassed over the mounting brackets:
Also fit the doors to the trim, so it would look better
Got a question for you, what are you doing with the vin tag?
Hmm... That is a good question. I think we might put it below the door hinges, rather than attaching it to the dash. I seem to remember look at Shipka's car, noticing the the vin tag there and thinking if it would for him it could work for us.
BTW fifties truck interior here we come...
Most of the interior, minus the front seats should be done sometime towards the end of next week, provided I remember to pick everything up
Can't wait
