Great work on your turbo regal! But I must ask as I have been away from the forum for a while. What happen to the 442?

442 sorry subject. It was painted....rushed wrongly. Not by me. This is the reason I have learned to do this on my own. THerefore I can do anything up to MY standards. The 442 is sitting over at a buddy's house waiting for me to get someone else to paint it right, or me to start on it again in the fall.

Finally starting some different stuff, dye the interior starts today

Using Gbodyparts.com paint which is specially made for him and the color match is good.

Following up with some SEM low sheen clear for protection of the dye. I only had to substitute a couple panels that I didnt have in Sand Gray.





and yes, the daughter is learning the trade!



excellent factory sheen using this type of system

Refinished my console this evening and applied the custom applique to the center console. I decided to two tone the center console to accent the dual colors of the 84 GN stand out even more







And the other seat was installed
