We got the kick pads installed fully on one side and have to add a few screws to the drivers side as well as get it tucked under the dash end cap. Passenger side is DONE!

Thank you to everyone here that helped with advice and photos, it made a huge difference!

Herb, your 60 looks awsome and I want to commend you on all the custom items that you've added. She's a beauty...

I have to ask, would you do it again and what was you favorite part of the restoration ?

Also looking forward to seeing more pics of the 37. When is the Cleveland show, sounds like a good time.

Cleveland Autorama at IX Center....March 14, 15 & 16th

Would I do it over again....not sure only because of the amount of money I spent on it. I will probably wait a year or two and then do something again......

I am not sure what was my favorite part....each section had its own satisfaction...one of the biggest rushes I had was when the car was fresh from body and paint and coming home for the first time...OMG...what a rush that was!

been working my a$$ off either on the car or finishing the addition we put on the back of the house. A great room with wood burning fireplace (room 24X32). I put down hardwood floors (Bruce prefinished 3/4" thick) with a big hammer and a floor nailer. Got a 52" LCD Sony TV and hung it on the wall, got some cabinets for the computers in the room. Have to finish the display cabinet as well as the trim work.

Everything seems to have come to a halt in the room while I attach the car and get it done......never seems to be enough time. This darn job of mine gets in the way.......

 

[jims427400]

Mine is the same way. Ya know theres one way to take care of that job. I'm on the 5 yr plan to get rid of mine. Need to build up funding for vette projects, and a few vacations.

Your great room sounds very nice. I too have done the hardwood project with the big hammer and nailer.

Good luck..

WOW, what a great looking 60. I am restoring a 60 myself. Right now I'm up to my eyes
with a dash pad. I read someone can offer step by step instructions on installation.
I would be greatful for any tips that came my way from anyone.

Looking good Herb, the Cleveland show sounds like it might be a good weekend trip as long as it isn't the same weekend as the local Vette clubs spring outing

WOW I guess I missed allot here, Herb the car looks great how about some over all pictures of the completed entire car.

I can almost smell all of that new leather right now. Looks very rich and comfortable looking

Best of luck with it I hope you actually get to drive it now, I am ashamed to say how many miles are on mine
