love the meteor shower. I have seen it in person and it would look great on the resto hands down. Lots of white ones out there and zero meteor shower.
 
Working on something very different. but I've always wanted to have a digital dash. since this will be a turbo car it makes sense. Working on refining the front a bit more.

I have definitely had thoughts of a PDM and Can keypad in my 62 and eliminating all the original body wiring. Such a big project though

1000% going to be a PITA. But i am this far so might as well. Doing the 8 button key pad where the fuse panel is currently. Most likely ecu and pdm in that spot

Fire wall almost bare. I need to roll it in the street and pressure wash/soap scrub it. It’s awful.

Cut off the engine mounts.

Remounted the powder coated window trays. Used Scott drake 1/16 window tape to reseat. I folded the tape in half. Wiped with acetone. Placed tray on window and smacked it with dead blow plastic mallet. It worked fantastic. Don’t be afraid to smack the window. I used a long towel under the glass as a safety precaution.

Also officially got my hands on the haltech UC-10 - it’s everything and more!

I got very motivated to work on the frame. Cut out old engine mounts.

I need to burn in the trail tailor kit and get the axel on the frame prior to paint shop at the end of February.

At this point i need to get the frame level and tack it in place. Hopefully i can drop the axel later this week.

Got hit with and instagram add made an impulse buy and got the armrest. I actually really like them. Quality is awesome.

Bracket latches to the window and they see magnetically attached. The arm rest is a 70 series but fits the 60. It’s a mix of high quality one plastic, metal and vinyl.

Hey man. Can you post more pictures of these armrests? Other views? What does the backside look like? I've gotten the same IG ads, but have never felt comfortable pulling the trigger.

I will at some point they are buried in my storage unit.
 
Lots of movement of the front axel swap. Coil buckets are in. Had an issue with my kit. Trail tailor accidentally forgot to weld in a bracket to my pan hard bar. No big deal - we are human.

Steering gear sent off to redhead. Should have it back in 2 weeks or so. Once the steering gear is back i can weld in the Panhard brackets.
Over the next two weeks i am going to pull the axel apart. Clean it up and paint it. From there it should just be assembly of the axel.

Then onto the rear axel swap.

I posted some pics of armrests I got off of TEMU not to long ago, they look just like the OneStone armrests but are less money and shipping is a fraction. But it does take 3 to 4 weeks to receive. Driven a few time with them and I like them a lot.
