I will fit this after its running. Cool piece to have after start up.
Will need to repair the seam pull and also add a roll bar pocket.

Hi Jeff,
Lovin the period correct goodies! Not to affect the patina look,
but if you're looking to add a little better visibility to the rear
window, try using Meguire's Plastx maybe on the inside. I've
had great luck with it.

Yup, roll bar need pocket. I had my top off this summer. When I reinstalled it, I was able to get a little better fit. Things stretch...

I had mine done in CA(where I lived at the time), after I finished the car. It looks a little different than how ERA does it. We're close enough ERA that I'd just take it down & have them do it, now. You might check with English car clubs to see if they have a good recommendation. We have an English car meet here in Stowe, every summer.

Ok, spring height and the G6 were not jiving. Picked up a set of 7.75-15 Power Cushion, looks much better and front fenders cover better......
I think anyway, slight spring settle and we are in......

Hi Jeff,
Haven't seen the name "Power Cushions" since scrubbing the whitewalls on my Dad's '67 Pontiac LeMans Sprint. I really wanted him to spend the extra $22 for the redline Wide Ovals. Don't recall them being much of a performance tire, but I see they came on new Corvettes in 1967. Looking forward to seeing you again in August.

Jeff ~ I sure hope you're planning to produce a nice video introduction once the car is complete. A full walk-around with on-road drive.
Your work and attention to detail have been inspiring and the car is coming along beautifully. Can't wait to see it on the open road.

Yup
I will make a grand video.........
After all this time its a must. Of course the process is time, money and effort which time has been an issue as of the last couple years.
On it though.
