Rolled her outside

I put 15 inch steelies with NOS Goodyear Powerstreaks under the car last week. Sun was shining, so I thought it was a good time to roll her outside.

Rear window and front windshield are in

Hans van Stokkum, of H & S paint ( who painted my car ) and my dad, mounted the front and rear window last week.

Doorpanels mounted!

me and Tommie worked our asses off to get the sidewindows and regulators in. Worked fine! And we mounted the doorpanels. They needed some massaging to get in..but...who the hell doesn't!!

Dashboard painted Medium Blue

Hans van Stokkum, of H & S Paint, beadblasted, primered and painted my dashboard and stuff. He mixed a color, to duplicate the Original Plymouth Medium Blue metallic. The guy is a magician.

Bench-work

JvH-Bekleding is gonna make some new fabric on the benches, from the NOS fabric I bought in the States a while back. The original fabric was still on the seats, so Jan can use these as a template for the new covers. The seatframes were in great condition, only some surfacerust, and needed one small spotweld on a spring that got loose. They were beadblasted and painted.
