The body is rebuilt and refinished! Notice changes like the shaved intakes (no more lights or latches externally visible). Since we had some time until the interior could be tended to, I designed a new interior shape that wraps around the driver. The same guy who did the fantastic job on the body moulded the new design onto the dash. Old design: New design: Unfinished modifications: Waiting at the interior place... Ready to cover. The dials are shalked out, and black lines show where the stitching will go. |
