It got so hot today that my painting was too dry. Went ahead and shut down and mowed my lawn. I'm still in good shape for my weekend thrash though
Everything looks really awesome!! 
That maiden voyage is going to be great!!

Mother nature slowed me down last night, but still got my taillights restored!
Keep on thrashin, we're pulling for ya!
I started stripping my upper door panels to recover myself. The passengers side back board is broken. Both are warped from moisture also. Going to have to get new cardboard from my local automotive upholstery supply and try to figure out how to reattach the metal top to the new cardboard. So a supposed quick recover has now turned into a major repair. I just can't catch a break.
I would suggest ordering up some ABS plastic or using aluminum instead, never worry about paper products near water again.
I bought this from Kevin in Canada and it came from a Hurst Olds. It was painted flat black by someone and they had attached it with a screw. It had an indent from the screw being tightened down. I stripped it to bare metal and used 80 grit sandpaper going with the brush lines till it removed the indent. I then used silver spray paint, then gray scotchbrite one direction, and cleared it when I was clearing my decked. I used the brown enamel I had used on my woodgrain and globbed it in the inlay. I wiped the face with a cloth. I wanted something on the center dash vent panel.
I purchased lower door panel pre cut carpet strips that match my carpet. I just test fit them and they are not cut correctly. Luckily they are a bit bigger. Had to use an exacto knife around them for a better fit.
