After picking Frank up from the painter, and paying a bit more than we’d agreed one (despite my having to do the custom striping that saved his hood f00k-up), I had Clark’s Auto Salvage get him back to the Auto Hobby Shop. Little did I know his days there were numbered.

So first thing today, I located and installed the hood locks and the NACA ducts back into the hood. Gonna take some adjustment on the hood locks, but they look great!

Here’s my ratty old original driver seat. Between the vinyl being ripped up, the foam all but flattened and dried out, and the seat frame feeling less than sturdy, this one’s done.

TMI Products Sport Seat upholstery and seat foam. Everything on these seats is new except for the frames themselves. Gotta stick ’em in the sun to relax the new skins for awhile.

Compared to the ratty old driver seat, these seats should be awesome! What a PITA to recover though – I have a whole new respect for anyone that does upholstery.
