I had the chance to tackle a few things the need some attention on my 76 Stingray (#ProjectSR76).

Three things I worked today and only one had a resolution.

Here is the first mini project I tackled.

Thanks for checking in Part 2 and 3 coming up.

Finally took sometime to put together a few video for #ProjectSR76.

I’m going to try to do some heavy duty editing and show the final work and my mess up. It’s pretty ugly. But it’ll be fixed.

Enjoy and subscribe via YouTube.

Thanks for checking in.

Videos coming up. But here is the before and after for my 76 Stingray’s seat. From this awful gray to a respectable black. I’m converting all the interior to black.

Before And After

Gray Carpet gone – Black temporarily in place

Will have to pull out the seat and carpet and put in heat shield, then trim the carpet. But it is going to look great.

Maybe the most fun you can have when restoring a old car is the tear down process. Discovering the hidden gems like signatures of the installer, factory repair tags and other unique things.

#ProjectSR76 is fun to work on for those reasons.

Check out the discovery and don’t forget subscribe updates here and on YouTube.
