    Wow. Great job.
    When you see stuff like this, you know you're looking at a serious resto

    Outstanding. The time, the effort, the result! Love the method of keeping track of the small parts for plating and the floral carpet underneath the car in the reassembly pictures. Just outstanding! Congratulations. AND the Vette reminds me of why I was so into them before discovering Porsches. Outstanding.

    Great restoration, Thomas!
    Question: how address any pitting (e.g., the pedal cluster) before powder coating or painting?

    All metal parts are blasted and then powder coated black. Some are sandblasted other are glassblasted.

    After





    Seats are done the same way :
