Keep up the good work.  You're getting there.

Corvettes and women are the same...You want to make love to them but they keep breaking down.

All progress is good, even if it's just a little at a time. It's quite a challenge to completely restore something that was so dilapidated. Keep going!

yet another minor update.
 
btw I am trying to find a couple of heater box nuts.  These are larger than the ones you get in the multipack kits.  You cant buy them separately and im only missing 2.  Does anyone have any spares?

I've got various size stamped nuts in the drawer Ben. If you know the size, I can check.

BTW, I used the rocker molding repair kit and also installed for a couple of local buddies. They work fantastic!! One hint - pay more attention to where the holes in the molding line up best rather than just mounting in the old factory locations.

Let me know on the speed nut sizes.
