Been kinda slow on project Lincoln. Between home stuff and work, leaves little time to mess with the car. :(

It would be cool to park it back in that same spot with the redneck boys for a picture so you could have a before and after shot. It's gorgeous!

Weather strip, most of the moldings and the door glass is back in. Starting to look like a car again!

Did you have to buy new weather strip? If so, where did you get it from and what do you think of it? I've got to get some for my '64.

Car is looking nice!

Thank you!
I bought a complete kit from Steele Rubber Products. VERY nice stuff, well worth the money.

Looks great, just reread the whole post but didn't see the answer to my question:
What kind of top did you put on that beauty?

Sorry bud, musta missed that.
It's from SMS. Real nice piece, but the seams are not in the factory position. Instead of being right on the outer edge, they're more towards the center of the roof.

Thanks for the quick response. I need to add a new top to the list, mines shot and yours looks great! Have to fix a bit of rust under the top first.
