Wow!  Your Gran Coupe is looking great!!  No worries about it not being 100% correct as it was the day it came out of the factory.  Other than survivors, I don't think very many are restored to "factory correct" (Dave at ECS has the best as far as that goes, his cars are awesome!).

Mine by far isn't! So welcome to the Gran Coupe restoration club!!  :cheers:
Can't wait to see more pics as the progress continues!!  Any advice/help/direction  you need, just ask!! 

Did you order those clips that were on e-bay?

Thanks, neighbor!!!
 :bigsmile:

:wow: Man i am loving your whole colour combination, the White vinyl roof has just lifted your car enormously my friend, do not worry about 100 point correct, you have got the look going on and it is going to be an incredible looking car when finished, i really really do love it and that it is a Gran Coupe just makes it that much even better :drool: :clapping: :bananasmi :bigsmile: :2thumbs: :wow:

I was stupid enough to tell her that "i dont need any more parts for the Cuda, have it all"....

Hey, what about parts for the Gran Coupe, i bet you did not tell her you still need parts for that  :misbehaving: :naughty: :bigsmile: :2thumbs:

I am making progress. Electrics, dash, headliner, OH console is in. Today i installed a local version of road lights (way cheaper...) and the stripes.
If i may say so, those stripes are pure sexy. 

Having a cup of coffee now trying to recover from realizing that i need a new steering column shaft....

Awesome.  Yur restoration is an improvement to the Gran Cpe.
U can wait for the rocker panel trim as funds come available.
Get the other parts to get it on the road....   :burnout:

Yes, thats my thought as well. Get the car on the road and enjoy it. Lacking parts will show up sooner or later.
