Seam sealer applied to all the seams where the original material came loose. Not as neat as the factory work, but functional. It was the end of my can of seam sealer and it was not as soft so it didn’t want to go on with a brush. In the end I used a putty knife to apply it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While waiting for the paint to dry I sandblasted the seat hinge covers and will paint them in fawn vinyl paint. This was the winter to do the interior work. I wasn’t planning on doing the engine as well. I still hope to have it all together for the spring. My work on the “66 Studebaker will have to be delayed.

Hard to get a good shot of black paint. The paint came out OK. I put it on thick so it took a day or so to dry. As soon as my sound deadening mat arrives I can get the interior finished.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next: antenna install and on to putting in the sound deadening mat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
