Finally got the hood back from the son in law's shop; as they got a new paint booth with some type of oven and of course had to test it out. Sure is not my forte so whatever he wanted to do I went along with. Needless to sat it came out really really nice. Looks like a satin sheet laid down on it.
Was kinda nervous on whether or not the high intake, carburetor and the MP air cleaner would clear; but no problem still have about 2 inches.
Got the carpet in but with the console mounting tabs constantly in my way and continually having to test fit the console I sure screwed the install up. I think I tried to go too high up the floor under the dash or else it wasn't the correct one. Probably operator/installer error. It's in and hopefully the seats cover up the mistakes.
Started mounting the windshield and back glass stainless trim tabs/clips which looks to be a challenge cause the new windshield clips I got don't look like the old original ones. The new ones have 2 different kind in the bag. 19 of 1 kind and 4 of another kind, got them from R/T Specialties so they must be correct. I'm just going to use the old ones fill in with couple of the new ones. Back window clips are the same as the old ones. Won't be able to have the glass installed for a while anyways; getting cold around here I'm going south and continue when the snow's gone.
