Re: 69 Olive Verde
Awesome build.
How are you attaching the lower body molding?

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Using oem style hardware you drill holes for. The drilling sucks but it's the tightest fit.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Sure hope I didn't just ruin my smooth firewall with the at lines showing. I felt like the firewall needed balance. Going to ignore it for now and keep working.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Dakota digital climate control fitted in aluminum into stock bezel. I think it may just work.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Did you have any trouble with your TMI door panels fitting around the window cranks or lock knob

Re: 69 Olive Verde
No. And I paid an additional $100 for them to NOT drill for locks. Got suckered there. I did have issues with the bottom template. Would have fit perfect if it didn't have thick double sided tape up top raising the distance to the lower clip holes. Oh well it works.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Yeah on mine the lever for opening the door wouldn't go on far enough because door panels were to thick and lock knob holes had to be modified so knob would fit. I didn't use the lower template for the reason you explained. Yours looks very nice by the way

Re: 69 Olive Verde
More interior going together. Vintage air is all finished up under the dash. Carpet needs minor adjustments but really liking the the feel of everything. Oh and started putting the front end together.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
I'm really trying hard but I will be the first to admit far from perfect.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Thanks to the help of my son I got the ac condenser mounted and starting to figure out air lines. Probably going to do some custom lines since I don't have battery box under hood for the hard lines.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Have fun with that. I'm doing that soon as well. I've found my vintage air kit to be not much more than those meccano toy sets I played with as a kid. Real mickey mouse and cheap with how stuff is made/mounted. Everything seems to fit "close" but nothing seems to fit "perfect" and very little seems like it was made specifically for the application. I hope it works better than it went together.

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Local guy welded up all my custom ac lines so all I have to do is get my length and oriantaion figured out so I can get them crimped. New steering linkage is on the way. I'm getting so close but my small to do list is still massive...sigh

Re: 69 Olive Verde
Intake came in and should work perfect only bad part is that it came in with a scratch top center. So instead of waiting for another I will just paint this one.
