thanks for the kind words ,this photo is the one i sent to the trimmers ..Luckily i had the door cards that came with the car or this would have never happened ...the post car door cards are almost unobtainable and the tops are highly sort after as they are longer than the other types ...... one of the pictures i sent the trimmer which is of a 1964 Hemi lightweight

I decided at the last minute not to stick the carpets down for maintenance..The main cables from the trunk run in the corner of the floors and if it was glued it’s a new carpet ..Parcel shelf needs doing and I am thinking of the best way of doing it with the cage ..Apart from a few bits of trim and a good hoover it’s all but done inside

Looks fantastic Pete. I made some door cards for the van out of some hardboard and some sparkly purple vinyl, should be easy enough to get some red :D

Another day in the garage moving the axle back this time .I should be able to run a 30 inch slick but I have had no room at the front of the slick .So after lots of googling I think my problem was a 20” front section monoleaf on a stock size front spring hanger .So I ordered a longer front hanger to move the axle back .Also my rear spring hangers were facing forward which I have learnt is a no no ..

Marc Sheridan drilled the new hangers perfectly and it all seems bang on with the rear hangers hanging straight ..As with all these stories there is a negative rear flexible brake line is like a guitar string and the propshaft is to short but this I knew would happen ..Now we can order new slicks and move forward again ..we seemed to be back to sideways photos which I am sorry for ..
