Thanks man :tup:

I installed my sunroof all the way and put the roof liner and trim pieces that go around it as well as my (; mirror lol.

I also welded up the washers on my clutch pedal for the hydro conversion. That is all set and the pedal assembly is in the car. I then put the steering column in too.

As for all of the wiring…I put the harness in the front of the car and started on the wiretuck for the headlight harness’. I have done a lot of work on the car in the last couple of days but I have been so busy that I didnt take any pictures. I will snap some and post them tomorrow.

Here is what the car currently looks like. I put the rear bumper on so it can be wetsanded and I also installed the door windows and handles.

I also sprayed the lower trim pieces with a SEM Trim paint. I was going to buy new ones but they are discontinued and they were 400 for all of them. F that, so this is what I did. Im planning on spraying what is suppose to be black on the bumpers with the same paint once the bumpers are done being wetsanded and buffed.

I’m happy with how these turned out considering their age and imperfections that were in the plastic.

I will probably over summer and then weld it up over next winter. I love my metal sunroof lol if I were to choose anything else it would be a glass top which is not a sunroof.
