Looked for and installed the front door panels and arm rests today. I couldn't find all the pieces so I had to improvise. I'm missing one front base and both arm rests along with both rear bases, so I put the rear arm rests on the front with some rear 4 door bases I had for now. I don't have any money in my paypal account so I won't be able to put out a wanted post just yet. I only buy stuff I need if I sell something first. I will be willing to trade for anything I have listed for sale just to put that out there. Well here are a couple of pictures.
Drove mine to work all week to work and racked up some miles today just driving going no where . time for a valve adjustment check up, I like that part for some reason .

Finished up installing all the new door, rear quarter and roof rail weatherstrip, started to replace the headliner until I found it had a broken rod clip.... damn.... installed the new RamManInc brake booster and restored brake peddle/frame, and cleaned up the garage to get a better picture of how to organize the next batch of bead blasting/restoration days...
Tonight I replaced the wing window on the pass side, the little lock arm was broken off and I just received the window sweepers I found for the front. I knew that with the sweepers installed any window work is near impossible. I also had to weld the window guide because when I took the bolt out the top bracket fell off. My wife told me she ordered my new M/T drag radials for my Birthday that just passed. My BFG's still have some tread but are 10 years old, not to safe at 100 mph +. I just need the door seals and some arm rest parts to be done with my project plans. It's been fun but now it's time to enjoy it. I entered a benifit car show scheduled for next month that my friend puts on with his corvette club to raise money and toys to give to the needy kids. I took the R/T last year and got a lot of attention even though the car was half primered. Now they can see the finished product.

Exhaust is being fabbed. Entire system will be ceramic coated (this week). Tried to mimic factory style tips. 3" pipes and doing electric cutouts. Supposed to be ready Saturday. Can't wait to hear it through the mufflers (Flowmaster). Alignment and tune the last things and it will be road ready!
