Thumbs up Scruffy Update - Interior Progress

Greetings Pelican friends. I've been over the on M5 board a lot recently but I've had a chance to turn my attention back to my 911 recently.

Thanks to help from our local PCA President, Keith Synder, I've nearly gotten the car back on the road.



I've had my gauges redone by NHS. They came out GREAT! I also added a trans temp and volt meter gauge in place of the clock.



I've replaced most of the factory switches with toggle switches. I've also created 4 dash vents (as the other early car guys know too well, getting air in these cars is tough) and replaced the fresh air blower motor.

I also added footwell blower motors for heat and defrost. The vents facing the driver and passenger are now strong!



The new dash is installed. I really like the simple lines of the early car dash. Wayne, our host, was kind enough to email me when he got one of these proto's in. I like how it matches the dash.

Next steps will involve finishing the switches and wiring. Installing the carpet. I have deleted the radio, amp, speakers & 964 decklid



I purchased these Sparco Milano seats in black leather. I am happy with how they match the rest of the interior and the comfort for driving and support for the track in one seat is great to have.

Step by step I am getting closer to having her back on the road. My goal is to have everything done so that I can catch some events in the spring.
