It's a pretty slick mod and pretty easy to do and is really cool to be able to drop both windows at the same time from the drivers switch.
        Any details on this? I've never heard of it

              Haha... I wish I had some. I have been working on it here and there, but not much to show for it. Just have not had much extra time, lately. I did get my fuel filler situation hammered out and should have some pics of that soon, as well as some interior trim pieces completed to show...

                Garey,

                How's it going, mate? Any progress to report? Living vicariously through you until I can start my resto project this winter. Hope all is well!!

                  Hey man, I'm still just working on it, when I have time. All the little detail things take a tremendous amount of time, since a lot has to be made from scratch or modified. I should have some photos for the weekend, though. I have been waiting on my new side marker lights to arrive. The fronts were NLA for a while, but a fresh order of fronts just arrived from Germany on Monday, so I should have them soon. This was holding up my paintwork on the rest of the "soft" body pieces, since I didn't know if I would have to close in the marker light locations in the bumpers, if I could not get the new marker lights...

                    I read all 66 pages.. the word 'inspiring' doesn't even start to describe your work!

                    I really hope to see this car tearing around some central PA roads soon.

                        Garey,

                        Your car has ruined my ability to just tinker around with a car. Now I'm finding myself constantly thinking about my car and wondering 'What would Garey do'?

                            Sorry man, that wasn't my intention... If I would have known it was going to affect you that way, I'd have never even started building it...










































                            Not, lol! Thanks man! I can always count on a good kudos post from you...

                            I've not "driven" it yet, just moved it around a bit and a couple of tire spins in the shop. The pedal setup feels good, but again, I've not even bedded in the pads yet, so not much feedback on pedal effort/feel so far. Right now, I'm concentrating on getting all of the trim pieces painted and getting the interior panels made or modified. Not much to show for it, though... most of the stuff is just in process...

                              Nice work on those door panels Garey! I'm getting antsy to see this thing all finished up. Maybe I'll stop by sometime in the next week or two, to check it out.

                              Did you find a kick panel yet? I think I have a couple black plastic ones kicking around... (lame pun intended).
