Is that bright blue repro vinyl? How well does it match the LeMans Blue? Sorry to be so nosy, Just trying to gather some info from those who have it.

So, what is the proper sequence for resto? What wa the biggest mistake?

As far as sequence issues....everything from installing the dash pad first before any other dash stuff....to installing the engine last, not while it is a rolling chassis....to jambing all body panels and doing final paint AFTER it is in place back on the frame and aligned...just lots of little things!


Here is the glove box installed and the before pics...
