Well I have done a shit ton of work this past week but nothing drastic enough to take pics of. I spent a full day adjusting the doors and getting the body fully bolted down. The doors went rather smoothly. A little adjusting at the front beam area pulled the door gaps right into shape. Most of the time was spent finishing up the wiring.
I did end up switching the gauges out with ISP gauges. I prefer the white needle over the red.
old gauges:


new isp gauges



went ahead and added a tach



I am hoping to get my ragtop and headliner installed next week. So I started putting all the pieces together.



I had my ragtop mechanism restored by Al Silvas. He did a wonderful job. Everything was powder coated, hook was chromed and all new stainless hardware. He also polished my factory rails. I have no complaints with his services.






I replaced the tension strap. I used a dog leash as recommended.







I also replaced the knobs on the window cranks that I had re-chromed. I was going to paint all the interior knobs, but after test fitting everything I think I am just going to leave them alone. I removed the old knob and found hardware that would bottom out and allow free movement of the knob. I then used the strongest thread locker I could find, so hopefully they will not back off.
