Another day goes by working on old cars...I am about ready to be done with this hobby. I'll be 35 this summer and it's time to move on to bigger and better things.

I decided to take my coffee in the driveway on Sunday morning.

Attached the muslin that, according to the experts, is not needed. Kind of like the wire woven in the burlap, this step is omitted on Legendary's instructional video. Hey, what do I know?

Ready for seat cover!

I found this kind of interesting after doing some research. This front bench seat only had a helper spring on the passenger side. I figured the driver side spring broke of was removed however my friend Tom ( Cuda Junction for all of your hard to find parts ) said that the early cars only had one. The 68-up cars had springs on both sides. Thoughts on this? He is going to hook me up with a NOS spring for the driver side. Tom rules.

I am also still trying to come up with a source for these little bumpers that screw to the back seat. I see that the 62-65 bumpers are reproduced...are the 66-up bumpers the same or similar? Thoughts?

FSB...fin

FST...front seat top

I feel like such a snob using such terms lol

Burlap and wire completed

We decided to use four layers of cotton fluff on the FST's so we don't fly out of the car when it hits a pothole.

One down, one to go!

Ready for cruising yall

Icing on the cake. I'm not sure I would ever start or finish anything without her help!

Good work! Never done upholstery before. Looks time consuming!

Wow those came out really well, nice job. Here, have a beer.

This is one of my new favorite projects on here.
I am very happy you didn't decide to part it out, that is going to be a sharp car with that color combination!

Thanks guys. It sure has been fun to work on a car that hasn't been butchered. After much discussion around the upholstery bench we decided to build one of our 511 short blocks into a stock appearing 383 with stealth heads. I have a Dana 60 housing with some ends that will go in it at some point as well. It should be a fun car with the column shift. We need to use up as much of our parts stash as possible. Good times.

Very Sweet ride you have .. i had one some time ago. this is what i id to the car. and yes i did sell it . why i don't know why.
