Seats and the start of the Headliner

Well it's been awhile since my last write up on here, last Sept I think.
I was able to hit up a pick n pull two weeks ago and found some good leather seats out of a Saab.
The drivers seat has power which I was able get all working. Of course I had to fab some brackets
 for the seat to hook up to. Next I moved to rear for the seat install and well the ones from the Saab just would not fit. So it was back to pick n pull to see what I could find. A newer Tiburon just came in with something that would work. The rear took a little more fab work because I wanted the 60/40 split on the seat to work so I can get to my Megasquirt box.
I had the weekend to start on the headliner which is always a fun job to do. This one piece kit is not the best I think for doing the choptop with the 56 rear section. But it is almost done and then I'll move onto sound deadening the floor and installing the carpet.

Flames

Well I thought I would add a little something to the gas tank. It took a few hours to mask and tape up the tank and after a few changes I was happy with it. I was going to try and do ghost flames but I got it a little lighter then I wanted for that. But all in all I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out. Doing this on the rest of the car might be pretty nice but that will be another time.
Now I need to get the seal down that goes between the body and pan and then find four guys to give me a hand to set the body down on the pan and see how it looks with those huge rims.

Cutting Polish

Yesterday was spend wet sanding the whole car with a final sand of 2000. Then I moved on to the cutting polish. I was able to get the first round of polishing done and as you can see from the pictures it turned out pretty good. Through the week I'll try to polish the car once more to get a little more shine out of her. Maybe next weekend if I can get a few guys to help the body might go back on the pan.

Body painted and cleared

Well it's all painted and cleared. I ended up with a couple small runs in the clear that I've already taken care of. I think the color looks pretty good on the car, more so when the sun hits it as the pearl really stands out. Now it's on to wet sanding with 1500 and then a 2000 sandpaper. Then I'll use System 51 cut and polish which I've used before and it seems to work pretty good.
