Saturday Night Special (66 Belvedere Base)

- Start date
THANKS!
I'm really enjoying the process. It's a FAR CRY from what I got originally, though it doesn't look like it. I had actually considered changing the wheels/caps, since the diplomat wheels were on it. But I like them a lot and the fitment is perfect. Every time I knock out a list, the list keep growing!
Another day at the office.
Spent the last couple months buying and selling houses and getting moved. the shop is a little smaller, but there is an attached garage where the important stuff fits.
Happy 60th birthday to my car!

Never thought of that, missed mine too Jan 25 66
Still have the Certicard for mine too but it's not dated....or have the name on it.

I have the holder, no card
Lots of people pulled out the card and never put them back....the holder is still there but the card is in my desk drawer.
Ticking more off the list; got ahold of the correct Day/Night rearview mirror and installed with some old sun visors I bought on here MONTHS ago. Got the Reverse lights working, repaired the dome lights, fixed the Horn and temp sending unit and fuel gauge. Very stoked on the rearview mirror, as I bought 3 that were incorrect through the years... saying it out loud seems silly. But I got this car in SAD shape and it's becoming nicer/better all the while. Now im looking for a parts car that I can rob stuff off of and make parts I already have NICER.
Photo of the headliner + Visors + mirror, and here's one of me we did for a work/promo thing.
This forums so helpful! Couldn't do it without y'all!

Cars looking great, they ARE a work of love. I’ll agree, the folks on here are very helpful, I will be on here more in the future!
Painted the recess of the trim, cleaned the old dirt and paint off the steering box and installed the glove box liner this weekend; then ran some errands.
What did you paint the recess of the trim with?
Just one shot. Mixed pretty thick; only laid down 3-4” inches at a time with a scrolling brush.
Which color did you use? I think originally it had a roughish silver or gray metallic in it.
The entire piece is anodized; so I couldn't strip and polish. The center line is a grayish color, but the two deep parts I painted black.
Lost ignition last night; right after I was telling someone how many years I’d been driving it without a break down. HA!
You jinxed it
