RIBS 71 convertible build JUNE 21 till??

[RIBS]

Nice job! I bet you're glad you did that before the interior!

Yeah, it was brutal. My underarms, ribs and upper arms are all bruised up, and barely functional. LOL knees and back hurt too. 1000 rejected staples everywhere! Thanks for the advice!

Test fit door panel, and replaced uJoints. Also stripped the rear seat down to the frame…what a nasty mess!

Well, I fixed my Mach 1 grill mount issue, made my own bracket….
and a few dusk pictures for fun…the texture is bed liner spray…

RIBS, looking so Bad to the Bone

 

[RIBS]

Just a minor update, did ujoints and alignment…also stripping and refurbishing seat frames in prep for recovering them. Must
parts in the Kitchen!

Looking so Good

Been working on seats, this is passenger side.. it’s not done….
In terms of sharp metal and pain and bleeding, these seats are challenging the inner doors for the top spot.

..... In terms of sharp metal and pain and bleeding, these seats are challenging the inner doors for the top spot.

I bet, but they are going to be amazing when they are finished.

Well…half way done with recover, then I will tweak the fit. So far so good…and I might as well rant….this is the second transmission pan I got from Summit, both have many deep grooves in the metal mounting area…horrible stamping quality….the whole point of the new pan is to seal the transmission leaks…got a feeling this might be a fail….I do have good Felpro gaskets and gasket sealer….oh , here’s my carpet…waiting on window adjustment and drivers seat removal and noise/heat blockers….

 

[RIBS]

Windows adjusted, top weatherstripping adjusted, seat frame repaired and painted, drivers mirror repaired and mounted…starting to add noise, vibration and heat blockers, carpet comes next…

Your car is looking so Awesome, keep up the Great Work
