It's great to see a worthy car getting restored. Hopefully I'll be able to see in person at a show somewhere!

The progress is looking great. The wheels look good as well. All my cars are labors of love and I fully expect to spend more money and labor than they are worth. Good luck and keep us informed.

Material was available thru SMS and is all new. Foam was sourced from Late Model Restoration. The covers were sewn by a local trim shop who did a great job.
