When it comes to these projects, we all end up waiting at some point(s) through out the process. I can't wait to get my car out of the bodyshop. :wink:

The front will have to wait a little longer. Thanks to Frank for the sewing tips for attaching the seatbelt cover to the carpet. :)

I ordered from Aardvark on line auctions. Nice guy. Just remember if you want the scuff pad to be black and you order a non black color carpet, you need to request that when you order. Otherwise, the color of the pad will match the color of the carpet. :)

Everything on the website is made to order. All colors should be available.

As it approaches the one year anniversary of my car getting dropped off at the bodyshop, it is resting comfortably under the covers awaiting some finishing touches. :)

All I can say is WOW! That's gonna be one beautiful ride. I don't think I would have the patience or the time to start a project like that. Let alone the $$$$. Now my question is, "how much will you actually drive it, or will this get towed around to shows?"

After all that anxiety, blood, sweat, tears, cash, and treasure hunt, I wouldn't trust driving that anywhere! Awesome job Bro!!!! Good luck, I'd park this in my living room...

The car will be driven strictly for pleasure and shows. I'd like to keep the miles low. :)
