68 Camaro - Almost Done!

[jeff68]

Well, there isn't all that much left. I didn't talk to Mike last week at all, but I'm assuming he got the quarter glass installed and the convertible top frame on (hopefully). Mike has a sample of the top material and is supposed to be getting a sample to confirm the new convertible top material.

The only thing holding us back is the windshield header moldings. I bought NOS moldings years ago, but the chrome was really bad and was actually peeling in places. Good thing, because the ends that wrap around and meet the wide vertical pillar moldings needed a little trimming. Anyhow, they are at the chrome shop but may not be done for another 4-6 weeks (ouch!).

Once the header moldings are back & installed, the convertible top frame can be latched & locked-down into position. This will allow final fit of the glass. Once this is done, the convertible top goes on. The bumpers and rocker trim also need to be installed.

I would say only a few weeks of work after getting the windshield header moldings back from Advanced Plating. I'm ready!!!
