An Honor!!
I would like to pay tribute to a vendor I purchased most of my parts from. The Paddock at Knightstown, Indiana. They were such a wonderful company to deal with. I was so pleasantly surprised in the spring of 2006.
I received my catalog and found my Baby Blue had graced page 43. What an honor!!... Unfortunately some 5 years later, the economy forced them out of business. I have however used Classic Industries in California... Kurt ABL99...

Final Product
From This....
To This.....New Interior, Console, Hurst Competition Shifter. Note the Graduation Tassels from Kathy and I (1973). Also my Graduation gift from my Mother and Father....Pioneer AM/FM Multiplex - 8 Track Player... She seems to be a crowd-pleaser. I can take her to shows and/or cruises with "Our 2nd Born ABL99" and she will hold her own...Does a heart good knowing some folks just can't be without the 60s.... Thanks for looking... Sincerely, Kurt Keller ABL99...

Thanks Matt for checking out her thread. I was very fortunate that I took so many pictures while doing all the work. Photographing and documenting all the parts was most of the fun....
