Jon, great work, you just blasted past me and the restoration of # 0567!! Way to go. I really hope to see the car when I pass through. Maybe a test ride? I'll have my camera ready for a bunch of comparison photos.

Greg

Thanks everyone!

Absolutely Greg. Looking forward to meeting you in person.

Great job. :thumbsup:

Found One!
 

I have been enjoying the hunt for original interior parts for my car and recently came across one that I was wondering if I would ever find in good shape: An original French Vanilla dash pad! It looks amazing and is presently awaiting install in 0327...rather than the Canyon Red dye job it was due to get.

Glad you got to come by Greg. It was great meeting you and talking '82's with you.

Fantastic score! The trill of the hunt is half the fun. :2thumbs:

Installed!

One more:

Jon, you are one lucky devil. It was great to finally meet you and get a ride in the '82. Thanks!!

What a surprise to behold when he showed me that dash pad that had just arrived. :)

My car may look good from a distance, but yours has just about a complete interior. Keep up the great work. I hope to get back on mine some next weekend.

I sat in my car the other day just staring....through my new Carlite windshield! Thanks to smunzen, I was able to get a great deal on the glass. What a difference after getting rid of the old cracked windshield.

0327 has been treated to a few other goodies in the past few months:
-New driver seat to replace the previous replacement which replaced 2 other replacements
-Finally found original inner and outer seat belt sleaves
-Original gas cap
-Very nice set of replacement door panels, driver seat belt and original carpet (yet to be installed)
-Correct blue tire jack and hardware
-First aid kit
-Complete owners manual w/bag

I couldn't be happier with how far the interior has come. My goal has always been to hunt down the nicest original pieces I could find. I will have to get NOS materials for the headliner and package tray but things are looking good in there!

The to do list continues to get smaller.
