Finn & Per - glad I was able to help you and some others. 

Sorry for the delay in the project but lots of other projects on at home (swing set, play structure, concrete patio, wooden sun deck -  :eek2: )

I'll go through some of the messages in my In-Box and make some space.

When I reinstalled them I used a clear rubber hose around the linkages to keep the rattling to a minimum.  I used a lubricant inside the hoses to ensure they do not bind up.  I cleaned all of the linkage clips with the wire wheel.  I had my door handles re-chromed and they turned out very nice.

Hi there Shakey, just going through your threads as I am getting tips for my own resto, excellent work. I'm also in Ontario and was wondering if you had your handles re-chromed by a Canadian outfit or did you send them to the US? Thanks Alan.

Geez - sorry for the late reply Alan.  I haven't been on much and I just saw this thread referenced in another and thought I'd click on it to get reacquainted with my old car that I never get to work on.

To answer your question, I had the chrome done in Cambridge, ON - Cambridge Custom Chrome is the name - I think.

Thanks Mike, I appreciate you taking the time to reply. I am familiar with them, previously I had a gentleman in the Mississauga/Toronto area do some chrome work for me with excellent results but he's no longer around.

Once again, excellent work.  :2thumbs:

Yes, I also put my dash in completely assembled. I could not even imagine trying to bolting the dash pad on while the dash fame was installed. It was already a pain in the butt while out of the car

There seems to be a "where is Shakey" thread every once in a while.

I check threads and posts on here daily sometimes.....then life gets busy and I disappear for a month or 2 at a time. Things can make you put your hobbies aside for a little while.

But I always eventually come back!! :icon_smile_big:

Overdue for an update... :rotz:

Nice to be back fellas!   :cheers:

Pardon my long absence but really had no updates to offer until recently.

Thinks are moving along as the interior is almost finished.

I know we all enjoy photos so here are a few more for you.   :yesnod:

Hope everyone's projects are also moving forward.

All the best!

Have you put the carpet on the console sides yet?? Does it just glue in place with the top sides lined up with the trim holes??

I assume the sides just sorta hang down??
JUNKTRAVELER: all I've seen in this thread is a bunch of bullies and 3 guys that actually give a crap.

krigel

Which manufacturer's seat covers and foams did you use?

Well, got it on the passenger side but I am missing the LT side SS trim for the console (have to find one of those) so I'll take care of that later.

As far as the install - correct & correct!
