New guy from Wisconsin

I wish I had the headrests.... long story short, the seats in the pics are 2nd generation seats. The previous owner must have wanted a 2nd gen car and tried turning this car into one! Other than the seats, it also had a 2nd gen gauge cluster with a tic toc tach, fender mounted turn signal indicators, side marker lights in the fenders and 1/4's. He also cut up the dash to install a light under the glove box, cylinder head temp and oil pressure gauges. Also had a diamond tuck pattern headliner and seat backs.... :confused:

Seats are gone, cluster is gone, cut up dash is gone, along with all the holes in the 1/4's and fenders that aren't supposed to be there.
 
Been crusing here but not really posting, so I thought that I would share what I have done since I last updated this thread. Would like to have had more done but things like work, wife, kids, house, etc... get in the way. I do get out to the garage as often as possible though! I have now finished the bodywork, and painted the car. Also except for the dash the interior is done. The original 383 is sitting on a stand in the garage and has been replaced by a 72 400 bored and stroked to 469. Machine work done by Kilpatrick Racing here in Waukesha.

I have no idea why these are coming out in the wrong order but I hope you get the idea.
