BUILD THREAD 87 Cutlass EFI build: 9/13/23..NEW STUFF!

[Injectedcutty]

I mentioned in the other thread, but I dropped off the headliner and visors yesterday at the upholstery shop down the street from the house. I forgot to take the package tray, so I took it today and the headliner was already done! He said if I had the cash I could take it, so I loaded it up in the shred truck! I should have the other stuff by Thursday unless I get there before he closes tomorrow.

I got home and promptly cleaned the plastic part of the coat hooks, and the side pieces for the package tray. Rigged up some redneck parts holders and changed them from tan/brown to black lol. With my 5yr old breaking her arm Sunday, it'll slow down process on more interior stuff, but hoping to have rear seat upholstery ordered by the end of the month.

Hell to the yeah!!! Came back out and managed to squeeze the headliner in with the door open to first stop and window down. Took a few for memory to kick in, but got going. As of now the coat hooks are mounted, dome light, the front and side trim are also mounted!!
I tested the map lights and they're good to go, gonna change them to LED's though. Looks awesome, I'm super pumped to get the other parts back and installed!!!!

Picked up my visors a few minutes ago and they look awesome! Need to pull out the mounts and clean them because I forgot to before I dropped them off. Should get the package tray tomorrow, and if so I'll get it in place and install the upgraded LED board 3rd brake light.

Also picked up some supplies...

Did a quick cleanup on the visor brackets and hand polished with Mothers mag polish. Also just finished gluing the insulation on, and sticking down the new seal around the sail panel trim. Those are ready for install once the package tray is in.

Also drew a unicorn as requested on the kid's cool new cast....

Your OCD really shows. FYI, those non-lighted visor pivots are the same part number, so they fit either side. Technically they didn't have be marked "D" and "P". But at least they'll go back where they belong.

How'd that weatherstrip work out? I see you got the "flat D" shaped. Looks like it'll do the job.

I wouldn't even know what a unicorn was supposed to look like, but if your daughter is happy with it, that's all that matters. Cute kid. Heal fast!
