New Door Panels October 2019

The door panels that came with my car were '68 Standard panels, which had holes that didn't line up with my car's holes. Also, the fake chrome was flaking off all around. I had always wanted to upgrade to '67 Deluxe door panels, but they were super expensive by the time you bought everything. So I found some custom standard door panels that look as good as the deluxe ones, with brushed aluminum inserts. They fit perfectly with my handles and armrest, and are a huge improvement from the old ones.

Reupholstered Driver’s Seat May 2019

Finally got around to replacing the upholstery on the bottom of the driver’s seat, which was ripped.
Pretty straightforward job, but would probably get real hog ring pliers next time. Did not replace the foam. I also put more insulation under the carpets under the seats while the seats were out.
