Thank you Pete!
Going to look at the seats next.
I have a spare set of seats.
I'm thinking about a houndstooth insert on the spares that
matches the blue interior and getting the front seat shoulders replaced
on the seats in my car.
Neal designed a bunch of replacement choices on spoonflower several years ago.
I ordered some sample fabrics to play with.

Still working on getting the letters done;
However, I restored the silver lines on the AC vents.

Bob,
With regard to the letters, have you thought of over-laying adhesive chrome pin-stripe tape, then using a sharp scalpel to cut around the letters? This would give you a mirror-finish chrome.

Pete, that could end up being a possibility if I'm not successful with the paint.

Decided it was time to freshen up the engine bay.
Re sprayed the air filter box and pre heater vacuum valve assembly and some other vacuum switch.
Letting the cover fully dry before putting it back together.

Bob,
the air filter butterfly nut is not straight.
Mind, personally I always turn mine to ''quarter-to-three'', not ''twelve-thirty''
ps only joking.
It is superb, as ever.
Pete
Please pm the appropriate rude answers as Randy wishes to keep the site clean.

Thats a great idea. I might just have to try that. I have no idea how Honda would have chromed that bit in the first place.
