Looks awesome Toby! Personally, I'd put the ashtrays back in, I think the chrome dresses up the interior a little. I'm sure whatever you do will look great!

yea, just not sure on the ashtray yet. I may even wait till they are installed to see how they look. Once I cut its all over.

I vote to leave the ashtrays out. The seats look great as is.

Toby , Put the ashtray back in! If it came that way put it back. Just my opinion.

I think I will hold off on the ash trays for now, can always put them in at a later time.

Here is an actual seat finished with tracks!!! yea! Finally.

switched gears a bit.....no pun intended.....lol.......to work on my new 3:42 posi basket case. Ordered a master bearing and seal kit tonight as well as a Moser Alum girdle. This week it gets sent to be setup and all the items installed properly clearanced.

Second thing i did this eve was to replace the control arm bushings. I was able to do this in 15 minutes with this tool, check it out. I am going to post for others in another thread. I have removed these the hard way, and will NEVER go back....this was toooo easy.
