been a while, not too much to report, i am hoping to take a week off and work on it again in the next few weeks.
I picked up my door trims today so nearly all of the trim is ready to go in just as soon as i can get the time to wet sand the body back and put the final coats of color and clear
the seats are all trimmed in the same color and as soon as its painted the guy will come around and fit the new hood lining, i still need to finish prepping the 4 doors and a few other things for paint before i do the final coats,
I also need to put the new gearbox in and repaint the firewall same as body color, there are still lots of things to do but i am hoping to get stuck into as much as i can over the next few weeks.
I have been out in the shed this afternoon working out the pulley's for the supercharger, think i have that sorted now just need to wait for the new belt i ordered from Repco to arrive so i can finish mounting the bracket. the new pully mounting bracket that hangs under the snout will be able to be used to mount a support bracket from the snout to the block.
anyway here are the new door trims, i tried to keep the colors pretty neutral.
the local trimmer guy has trimmed all my seats all the door trims kick panals console ect ect the hoodlining and carpets along with the trunk and a few other things for $2,500
cheers barnsey
and a couple of the pulley tension-er i am working on.
