That's always a fun job. The human hand is not meant for those tiny spaces.

I've been waiting on parts for a long time.  Can't finish the interior until I get the custom made linoleum for the cargo and seat back areas.  Ordered on Feb 18.  Suppose to be in the mail.  I received a box from Echler's Chevy yesterday that I ordered on 28 March.  Crazy.  Anyway I did do some interior work.  

 

 

Posting some catch up video's.   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I reinstalled all the heater/defroster parts last night.  Man there's a ton of parts to that heater.

Thankz for sharing the vids......Nice work.

Starting to look pretty good.  The wife is getting a bit excited to drive it.

Wait a minute. She gets to drive it after all your hard work? Something smells fishy. Do you at least get to drive it during the shake down / suicide run?

Yeah it's her car but first drive will be mine. lol

Yes we got lucky in our upholsterer choice.  We got one that did what they said they would do, when they said and better than I expected.

I've been messing with getting the brake lines run, new MC and bleeding them.  Front caliper banjo bolts would not seal.  Went through 3 sets of copper crush washers before I bought new bolts which finally did the trick.   Installed the two rear door panels.
