The Corvette intrigues me. It looks great cosmetically.
Who makes a vintage racer out of a '62 Thunderbird?

That's where the fun begins. There was a piece of trim loose on the rear seatback, so I figured I would fix it while I was replacing the rear deck material. Easier said than done, a bit of a gongshow. I forgot how hard it is to remove the rear seat in the car, that it has to be done in a certain order, and aligned perfectly. The rear seatback is also much heavier than it looks for a one man job. The trim wasn't too hard to repair, but the seat removal, ugh, something I thought would take 30 minutes took two hours, and I damaged the rear seat material just a little (as the seatback mounts are sharp). My back is still a little sore/ On the positive side, the custom mat for the rear deck fits very well and looks great.
Sounds like a job well done and well worth the effort.
Oh yeah, I was wearing shorts while doing this, as it was (Seattle) hot and I expected it to take no time, and cut my leg in the process as well. This is the kind of thing that can make me want to just pay a pro an hour of labor and have it be done with So, I damaged the car, cut myself, got close to suffering a mental breakdown, but I saved money!

Still it looks like (it used to be) a nice resto-mod that will get rebuilt again.

Saw the shell of a 65-66 Impala 2 door HT on a flatbed today, I assume it'll be a custom someday.
edit to add: I'm not going to say it. But I was thinking somebody else would.

Had the old dear out today, another fun adventure. Visited with the friend who has the 300CD, which he installed reflective tape in the taillight housings to make the lights brighter. He suggested I do the same to my car, and gave me some tape, so I figured what the heck. Upon removing the rear right light assembly (very easy on old MBs), I pulled on it a little oddly, and broke the ground wire. Fortunately, it was able to be repaired, and now I have at least somewhat brighter lights. Car ran great, and I got a couple random compliments from people on the street (lots of people out today in the nice weather), including a woman on a bike who said the car is "amazing".
Parked in a construction area, maybe not a perfect match for Honey Bucket blue:
A couple shots of how the new mats look, and how it works with the factory carpeting. I am pleased. I also have a similar mat for the console tray, and for the rear shelf (couldn't get a good pic of that in the bright light today):
The tow vehicle is still connected to the trailer.
Fabulous; great choice! And, as far as match goes, I think the mats are just about as close to the carpeting as the car's color is to the "Honey Bucket." In other words, very near a match.
I had one of my old "dears" out yesterday as well. I took the plow truck over to a neighbor's house and used it to drag a 30' culvert down the road and over to my driveway. My wife has "plans" for it. I failed to take any photos of the work in progress.
Oh my!
30' culvert, maybe a playroom for kids?

I wonder how many late model cars would start as easily. The fintail is the same way, and I don't even use a battery tender (mild climate, no draw). I suspect many modern cars electronics always running wouldn't fare as well, and might have a Christmas tree of idiot lights for a while after first start.
