Looking good Dave!  If it has been as cold there as it has been here I can understand the slowdown.  Jeez it's cold!  Thank god for global warming or we would all be freezing our buns off!  Where did you get your wheel well opening chrome?

Hey everyone
It's been a lonng time since I posted I feel like I'm not a member any more. :walkaway: Other things have kept me from getting much done on my car and posting recently. Hope to be back on more soon, any way here are some pictures of what I got done. The dash pad really  :swear: off!
I left it packaged untill I needed it after checking it out on delivery, now the dye is pealing around the sewn seam. That took the wind out of my sails for a while and I stopped working on it.
I'm getting the itch to get going on it again so hopefuly there will be more to update.
Dave

I can assure you that you are doing much more than I am right now. Looking good, keep it up!  :2thumbs:  What are you planning to do about the dye? I have never had a colored interior so I dont know much about how they get colored and how to fix it once it starts to deteriorate.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do on the dash yet. It looks like I'm up the proverbial tributary with out a visible means of locomotion on it. :smilielol: They won't respond to my e-mails.
I have done some interior panel dying before and will probably just redye it.

Looks good with the stripes and black out on the hood too. :2thumbs:

Sounds like it may be a fix you will have to do yourself on the dash pad buddy. :dunno:

Farmboy,
As always your cars look awesome!
What guns are you using? Devillbis correct? Plus, CVi or ? :)

Thanks, Wes

Dang it!  That is exactly what I want to do to my 73 Challenger.  Might have to rethink a little now.  Great looking car. :thumbsup:

Its great to have you back Dave. I was thinking you had that car finished and had dropped out. Are you going to put a black vinyl top on that bad boy? It sure looks nice. :2thumbs:
