Thank you for everyone's thoughts on the wheels. For now I will leave the trim rings off...Joe
Looks great Joe. Just the sheen I plan on painting mine when I finally put some paint on the primer lol

Actually doing quite a lot of little things with the car. Not all worth posting pictures of. Waiting on finding a more correct headliner. That will help lots of other things to keep moving. Carpet is trying to relax from being in a box for so long. I did get the flaps installed onto the wheel wells which were powder coated originals. Also sprayed the underside with deadener. Had to add a couple of other items to the RH well for the factory a/c. I think the guy who put the staples in from the factory must've been hungover as he almost missed on the RH well near the bottom.

Also waiting for the fenders to have the striping done. At that point emblems can be attached & then I can install wheel well. I assembled the valance assy. Little by little.

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
