Nice Franz!!!

Working on door parts this morning. 

Cleaned and lubed window mechs. Both OG and now they work great.

Drivers door front mech has a broken spring and the rear is just worn the heck out.  OG replacements pulled from the KCW stash. 

Working on vent wings. Both frames are in good shape  and should clean up nicely.

Just missing the pass latch.

We will build it if it comes.

Pass seat base has been previously “repaired”

Cleaned up and weld. Much better. 

 

WW color charts are awesome!

Tore down a few other bits. Pedal assy, wiper mech, and the steering column. 

You were missing all of your inspection covers. KCW stash provides again. 

Made it out to the booth and blasted everything. Paint tomorrow. 

We will build it if it comes.

Gathered up seats this morning. Stripped then down for blasting. Few spring repairs along the way. 

Dug seat side cover out of the KCW stash. 

Your driver side seat back is incorrect. No lever or lug for the 66-67 side latch. Dug one out of my stash.

WE NEED TO FIND a PASS side mech (latch, lever, & spring) . Can any one out there HELP???

Ohhh yeeeah!!!

We will build it if it comes.

Good morning. Hope you had a merry Christmas Tom.

Getting ready to order some parts today. Feel like we’ve discussed most of the details. Although I’m not recalling any stereo talk.

Do you want a stereo in this ride?

Retro sound make some nice OG looking ones. Or we could do a hidden install and you can just Bluetooth from your phone?
