Re: Ol' Blue 1970 - Interior Restoration

Instrument Panel restored and reinstalled. Getting the speedometer cable hooked back up was hard as the dickens. I was beginning to wonder if it would ever go back correctly, but it finally did.

The window channels were all rusted out as you can see, so I changed them out and also installed new door lock knobs.

Painting the steering wheel sure made a big difference in my opinion. It really pops when you open the door. Likewise, I finally decided to remove the side view mirrors and restore them properly. I am so glad I did. I changed out all the screws which were mismatched and rusted out to all uniform stainless steel. It looks great!
