Put new power steering lines on this evening but that was about it. Still cant get the reproduction pitman arm on the shaft. Did get a phone call informing me that my wheels will be shipping early next week! It'll be nice to get the car on the ground again

Put a new set of door window seals on last night. The other ones were about to fall off. The first one was kind of a pain but went smoother as i did more. I'm not sure of others experience with these but the ones I installed seemed very cheap. I had to put the clips back on a couple times. i ordered mine through SS396.com. Anybody else have problems with these?

Uncovered the car and worked on the interior today. Got the carpet finished and put the sill plates on. Felt good to finally get back to it today.

I am sure there are many who would love to be as far along as you are! Looks like you are getting to the final stages! Wish I had the space, patience & overall time to devote the level of detail you have given your beauty!
