I postponed some work today. Because I had a full day other wise to do the top. I still got to trim edges after I get the chrome on. Not bad for a flunkies first time doing a top.

Thank you Ken. Todays adventure was doing yard work. Then I put the top chrome and trimmed the excess before it did something silly on the edge.
Got the drivers side felts on also. And the little rubber dealy for the rear window into the doorjamb.

Thank you as well. I heard they were really a bear to put on right. It is a bunch of stress gone it went on for me. Now if the headliner goes in that easy I set. Everything else I can do in my sleep LOL.

Well I never got around to doing the window felts but. I turned it around in its spot so I can work on the front and put the engine in. And I think this is the first time it had a hose taken to it since it was 6 months old. I washed it real good with a hose and soap and water. Went over it in the sun see if there anything I missed. I think it actually looks better in bright light than under florescents.

So I had a real fun chevelle day. Like a kid in a candy store. Can I drive it yet mommy.

White marks in quarters are the chrome studs that still got buffing compound on them.

Grill and that lower chrome are about to be ordered. Soon as I can make up my mind if it is a 6 or 5 bow headliner. I am pretty sure it is a 6 tho.
