Here's a little video of yesterday's installation and some historic Air Lift photos. I forgot how long it takes to put these videos together as I haven't done it in a while. Enjoy!

So cool to see that the Eliminator II car had a GMC M-5000 truck that must have been morphed into a panel wagon by GM as it looks 100% factory. It can be seen next to Schartman's funny car at the 4:20 mark of the video.
That's must have been a screaming tow vehicle with its V12 702ci gas-powered engine. My uncle had an M-7000 back on the farm that we used to run around in in the '70s. A 10-speed grain truck and that thing would whine out to no end. https://www.pinterest.ca/williampmun...-model-trucks/

The headliner is now installed complete with pinch weld moldings, sun visors, rearview mirror, and new dome light. Next up will be the window channels and then the side glass can go into the car.

Me and my brother put the headliner in my dad's '65 Nova a few weeks ago. I don't want to do that again.

lmao
I've always wanted to say I've done my own but have been a helper to (3) of them being installed and know when I should leave something to the pros (I resign to being the helper). I mean I can pull the fabric taught and all that, but it's the glue. Yeah the glue. I'd have that all over the cloth by the time I was finished because every time I work with the stuff, my hands are always covered with it when I'm done. Nope...I always have an experienced guy come in to do the headliner.

Lot's to do here still, but the door panels finally arrived from Al Knoch. Now I can finish installing the stainless trim and get these ready to mount up for a later date. Also cleaned and painted the lower kick panels and also repainted the original wiper transmission.

I think your Lakewoods are Mopar A body applications.
I'm fairly certain they have the funky shock mount sticking up, unless you added that tab for some reason. The Mopar A body looked similar to GM but had a narrower pad. |

Nope...not Mopar. They are GM bars and pads with correct shock mount tabs for 69 Camaro. In fact, they were found on a Copo car where someone had added the extra tabs to reinforce the lower shock mounts. Those were cut off yesterday and today we're welding extension tabs onto the stock positions to raise the mount position on the lower shocks. Then I have to clean them up and repaint them before they go back on.
