Headliner
The new headliner is installed. It's bit dirty. We still need to clean it up.
I had Jay at Bearnut Upholstery do the work. Jay is going to build my rear bucket seats as well. He's going to make them match the Corbeau buckets. It'll look awesome.

Instrument Carrier
The instrument carrier is ready to go in. Here's the final product using the Autometer guages.
I bought the OER instrument carrier and modified it to fit the Autometer guages. You can check out the project here: http://cc-nm.org/gallery-2/autometer...acement-for-69 I had a friend of mine CnC the bezels to give the guages that classic look. If you can believe it, I used a three inch sewer pipe coupling to make the carriers for the guages. Then I did alot of sanding, fitting, and final epoxy. Not bad for a hair lip I must say. I hope these go into the car next week.

Console Guages
Here are the console guages that go with the instrument carrier. I got the Autometer guages from Southwest Speed. Mr. Ivan is a good man!

Continued Engine Work
The work on the engine is progressing. Pulley system in place with belts.
The A/C pump has been moved to the passenger side. James made a new bracket to allow it to go there.
