The interior

Here's the interior with the seat and the carpet removed. I found more rust (and moisture) than expected.

A coat of POR-15 should be a good base for the new ACC carpet kit.

Here are the swivel buckets out of the 74 Chevelle. We put "cheapy sheepies" on 'em to protect them while all the work is going on.

The driver's seat is installed and showing off its swivel action.

This is supposed to show the supports I made for the seats and the way they were bolted down. They're pretty secure. I don't anticpate them going anywhere without my permission.

Here both seats are installed and waiting for a couple of bums to get in and go for a ride.

A Grant steering wheel replaced the old one.

The console shifter is fitted into position before installation.

The Shifter is installed and ready to fasten the console down.

The AutoMeter tach is in its temporary location while the gauges are being tested.

The 1.5 inch gauges are temporarily mounted in their cluster under the radio. Note the factory 8-track player. Is this disco or what?

You can see the gauge faces a little better in this picture.
