Here are a couple from today. Get the body done and then remove the doors and fenders so they are out of the way when we put in the engine an K frame. Even though they are going in from the underside.

Here is the headliner. I had to dye it to match since it came in buckskin. I scanned a sample of the old headliner with a DuPont Chromavision camera and mixed some vinyl dye. I tinted it to get it a little closer.

I am glad that my brother held on to the GTX. I still remember the day we picked it up at the dealership.

Original rear panel. Polished and painted but need to use Duplicolor MX101 Charcoal textured metallic. This was the silver. They have it in three shades, silver which was too light, charcoal and graphite that is going on the grill.

Engine is installed along with front suspension. I used VHT high temp clear on the exhaust manifolds and Mopar engine paint for the block and bellhousing.

In the car! Installed if from underneath and it went in very easy. I took off the old exhaust system and everything went right into place.
