Great Strides

Post by opus10583 »

Hi,

Over the last two hot and humid days I stripped the floor of my car, replaced what was left of the factory insulation and carpet with sill-to-sill layers of RoadBlockR soundmat and EZ Cool insulation, a jute-backed needlepunch carpet set from Newark Auto Products, then re-installed my newly restored ($$$, local shop) original seats (Germanex skins).

I LOVE my car! (It needs a bath.)

...I'm too tired and sore to drive it today.

Ciao,
Mark

PS New IAP door panels are having their sills dyed black this week.
...Yes; I know what it means: Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino.

This thread needs pics :)

sounds like you're making some good progress. Maybe I'll get the mechanical stuff sorted this year so I can start the interior next year
