Like all classic cars, leaks have to be dealt with. I don’t personally subscribe to the notion that all old cars leak. They do until you fix them.
My 76 Stingray gets fewer miles to the quart of power steering fluid than it does miles per gallon of gas. So, I need to shake down the unit to see where it’s coming from.
This video shows my process.
Thanks for watching, and drop me a note, and a like, and subscribe.

I had to switch up the plan, and for now, I go with the original steering wheel that came on SR76.
Let me know what you think by dropping a note, and don’t forget to subscribe!!!
Take a look.

The gray, drab, and ugly steering column has been dealt with. I’m not 100% happy with it.
I’ll have to rethink it. Let me know what you think.

Almost done with the entire dash (nearly done with the entire interior – at least the dying part). Take a look at how the center console turns out.
Thanks for viewing! Drop a comment!!

Finishing up the speedometer and tach bezel on my 76 Sting Ray.
I’m pleased with the outcome. They aren’t new, but they look much better and cleaner than the old gray color.
#ProjectSR76 is looking good on the inside.

Continuing with the color change on my 1976 Corvette Stingray (#ProjectSR76) I tackle the interior top/roof trim pieces.
The will be a two-part video. I have had several viewers ask about seeing the entire process, so in this two-part episode, you’ll see the removal of the interior top/roof trim and a recap of the process of dying each piece.
Here is the removal and inspection of the trim pieces.
The cleaning and dying video is coming up!!

Welcome back.
I’m working on the interior of my 1976 Corvette StingRay – #ProjectSR76. This is a color conversion from the ugly original gray to black.
In this episode, I’m working on the passager side dash panel, which contains the vent and the pockets.
Check out the progress.

With the upholstery on the seats complete and the carpet in place I’m going to start dying the gray interior parts that do not be replaced.
For this video I’ve pulled the metal bracket that holds the manual light pull and the bottom cover for the steering column as well as the side section of the console cover.
Lots more coming up!
Thanks for checking in.

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.
