Okay you bunch of crows, focus on the pretty white thing in the middle of the shop, not the shiny stuff all around.

Weeeee, you're welcome to drop in anytime. Love to show you around.

Fine looking lathe in the background there, Jim.  Details?

It goes round and round. Nothing special, its an asian "value priced" thing from Busy Bee tools here in Calgary. Wouldn't buy another one. Does the little things I need around here.

Can I ask where you purchased any new interior items from- as in seat covers , etc...
Sorry if you already mentioned this

I bought the seat covers from MSA. The interior panels are all original re-dyed, except the tail light panel and one quarter window cover. 

Just finished wrestling the seat covers on the drivers seat. Now all four pieces are done. May I again thank all the upholsterers out there for their service. And the inventor of the zip tie. Without those things to pull the back rest upholstry ends together, and a heat gun to soften that thick vinyl, I'd be a basket case. 

Will have them back in the car soon and pictures coming this aft. 

P.S. I'll also have a like new set of black seat covers just laying around if anyone would like them... I am NOT installing them for you.

As a veteran of the seat restoration club, I can 100% relate to that! 

Think Sue from 'arse monkey garage' could give a firm handshake-

Jim - sweet car. Very nice work !

I think you should make a road trip my way to deliver the seat covers! Kill two birds etc etc.... Cold beer or hot Timmies awaits the intrepid Calgary Courier

There. I'm black and blue and so is the car.

 

Nice air compressor I see reflected in the quarter window trim!!!!
