Project Almost finished

Thought I'd post before and after pictures of my 72 T. Finished the body and paint (windows out) about a month ago. There was no real rust repairs since the car spent most of its life in Costa Mesa, Ca. The paint and body took about 3 months to complete which means I wasn't able to drive it last summer. During the process the front fenders, front hood and rear lid were replaced. The original seats were replaced with, late 70's seats. The seats were actually brown, I resprayed them in a black which somewhat matched the rest of the interior. Resprayed the carpet with the same black. Re installed the A/C using early 80's components. It actually works! even after I made my own wiring harness for the A/C. (Thanks to this BBS) I am hoping I can find the vent grills for the A/C over the winter and will be working at replacing the dash cover.
Hope all enjoy the pic's.

Looks good! I can really appreciate the amount of work you had to put in. Did you need to do any freshening up of the suspension?

Thanks for all the great comments.

Cant wait for the summer to come around.

In the meantime, I am going to try to get to replacing the dash cover, should have replaced the dash pad while the window was out but saw what the prices for good used were and thought otherwise. Will be looking at a good dash cover.

Any suggestions where I can get a good quality dash cover?

Thanks again,
Marc
