Looking great Joe. Particularly like the replication of the factory paint coverage on the inside of the extensions and valance
Interested which inner fender splash shields you went with? I bought mine from Steele Rubber, based on other’s comments on the thickness, but am a way off installing yet. Yours look good.

Thanks Tim. I told my painter don't try to duplicate overspray but don't prevent it either.
I think I bought Steele also. I made staples using galvanized wire. Couldn't duplicate the curl on the back side though. Graeme is going to pass me up if I don't get it together

Core support is basically all back together after powder coating, NOS bushings, regulator, & horn relay. I won't be able to install it all together. I just wanted to show what a fully dress a/c core support looked like. Upper seal isn't made correctly. Found a used upper seal years ago..Joe
