New interior
Although I read the new posts daily, it’s been awhile since I’ve posted. I am replacing my worn original turquoise interior on my 65 GTO convertible with Legendary product. Seats are with the upholstery guy, and I just finished installing the door panels and carpet. Also having my original dash pad restored by Just Dashes, and painted to match the new interior which should be done in May. Seat belts were restored by SafetyRestore.

Stated the GTO for the fist time this year 2 weeks ago.
Took the race car to the local track for NHRA cert. yesterday. Waiting on a Qjet to rebuild for the race car, then hopefully call it good and put the engine back in the car. |

Dumb luck, or right place at the right time. Those were only used on the GXP Coupes & 2009 Street Edition Convertibles. Sorry to say they have been out of stock from GM for many years.

Does searching for parts on ebay and craigslist count? I seem to do that a lot.
I began digging into a replacement diff I bought in hopes of fixing it. I also watched some videos on installing headliners. |

As for me - no big projects yet except driving it! Tuned it up, fixed a vacuum leak under the dash that's been nagging me, polished it up, and have been cruising around town. The kid at the burger place yesterday said it looked like a Hot Wheels

It's from a commercial. I'll have to admit, I've thought the same thing when I've seen your name. The phrase kind of sticks with you because they used to run it a LOT. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrwwQx9xWNU

TV commercial with Denny Hamlin in his race car and race suit. Little girl told him "nice PJs". He didn't get it either. Sorry.

Every one is more ambitious than I am, I also worked on the V8 Solstice a little bit. I always thought the grills should be recessed to really give it a Pontiac look.
So I did it on the Mallet, Norms Fiberglass grill tunnels, very good quality only needing a little fit and finish work, painting and modifing the original grills to fit.

I like. Are those back ordered for a year like other Norm's stuff?

I drove it. Does that count?
I also looked at my 1 year old and yet leaky power steering gearbox. I squinted at it, and gave it a talking to using strong language. It however, persists in its dripping.
