Looks good....I hope to have mine painted sometime soon here. I am going to paint on the decal kit and clear over it though instead of using the decal kit.

Nice looking Silver Anniversary. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of seat covers are those?

The seat covers are definitely saving me! I don't want to know what the previous owner did in that drivers seat...one of the many uses of telescopic steering I suppose.

Restoration, then performance, definitely! :cheers:
