Well I got the trunk cleaned up and painted this weekend. This car was really clean to start with but this really added to the finished look.
Now it is time to work on the inside, clean and paint the floor and insulate it before carpet and seats. The floor was really clean as you can see before the paint work starts.
It is nice to start with a clean car rather then buy one that is rough. Suspension and drive train is next.
This backwards build thing is kinda cool. I may try that on my next build
Trunk looks great
Marty, You know how painters are with over spray on a build. This way that is not an issue. We will see how it all turns out. The plan still is SEMA so the push will be on.
Guess what showed up today...UPS with a bunch of parts.
Also I took some 69 Camaro seats that I had and will use them on this project with the Camaro center console. Seats will get the black and white houndstooth.
It was nice that the threaded inserts in the floor for the seats worked for the two outer seat bolts. I will have to make the inner mounting for the seats as this car had a bench seat and no holes for the inner bolts. Console and seats fit just like a Camaro...
Now your putting the seats in before the Boom Mat and Carpet. Do you want me to call the guys at DEI and have them explain to you that you want to put the sound & heat insulation in before the seats and the carpet.
ps - Just kidding
