Beautiful Bee, love that year!

Installed a new milodon oil pan and pickup and took the car out for a spin. Next weekend shooting for installing a shift kit and servicing the transmission and adding an larger pan. Bucket seats ordered and should be here in a month. Steadily making progress.

I flipping love this color on Bee's......Beautiful!

My favorite too, probably the color I would pick as well!!!

Awesome Super Bee! Never seen that color in person. I like the yellow lights. I never heard of using glass paint. How's that work? I am almost afraid to ask. That's not like using a metric crescent wrench

Pretty easy to work with. Cleaned the light with rubbing alcohol before. And sprayed on about 4 coats.

Great. Thank you for teaching me something new today

Ordered and received my new seats. They are TMI and I’m really happy with the look and feel of them, they seem like really good quality. Unfortunately the brackets are about 6 weeks out so I won’t be able to install them for a bit.



I’m going to be framing out and having my trunk carpeted in the next few weeks. I’ve found a few pictures online for reference but still undecided how I’ll be doing it. Here’s a few I’ve found online I like.

Looking great! I personally like the second trunk option. Would go well with the ribbing on your bucket seats. Keep it up!

Today we serviced the transmission and added a deeper pan as well. Found out the car already has a shift kit in it which we suspected.

Hey, that second trunk is mine!! Lol. Glad you like it. I think it turned out great and the theme is through the whole car.

Very nice. I really like how you have the battery separated from the rest of the trunk. What material did you use for the framing walls of your trunk? I was thinking of using .25” cabinet plywood. Also are your walls easily removable?

There is a panel that comes out that allows access to under the tray. I wish i could take credit for the work. I had it done. He used a kinda heavy poly sheeting. Glued some foam on it and covered it. Then did the stitching. Im not exactly sure how he secured it in place.

Btw, love your car. I almost went with similar seats but decided to go with original frames to use the same floor holes.

A few pictures from the good guys car show of mine and my dads cars in Puyallup Wa. First show for me and the car.

I just did the Little Creek Casino last week in Shelton. Was going bring it to the GG this weekend. But I’m probably just going to run up for a walk through I’ll stop by and say hi.

Finally got around to installing my TMI bucket seats in the car. Really happy with the final outcome. Going to be reupholstering the rear seats to match down the road. This winter/spring I hope to rewire the interior. Currently chasing a couple electrical gremlins. Does anyone have any suggestions on a wiring harness that has worked out well for them?
Thanks in advance.

Those seats look nice! Car is turning into a real stunner!

Check out American Autowire for your wiring harness. I installed it in my Charger and worked out great. It
