The work you have done on this car is incredible. The new interior looks amazing! This will be such a fun car to cruise in when it's done

Thanks to the pictures of Jay, I was able to reconstruct the parts and then the upholsterer has coated and mounted.

some of you have mounted the speakers behind it?
I saw that there are two slots with 4 oval holes.
may be a predisposition?

Beautiful car, nice work! That dash reminds me of a 67 Impala I had. Probably could get a full size Chevy catalog and cross reference some of those parts you may need.

Very nice car. It looks like you are putting a lot of time into fixing it to make it look like new.

So Marcello... You need front and rear bumper fillers for your 1967 Delmont. I looked and Fusicks does not have them. I wonder if anyone here knows where you could get them? I supposed used bumper fillers would be ok as well.

Its been a solid project i haven't had as much time to work on it this year as i would like. But its time to get my but back in gear i want her on the road for this summer.
I did have a body guy i know fix the left rear quarter for me. He made a great patch on the English wheel to fix previous repair that someone did a very poor job. Still wish i could find the memory card for my camera from that day.In one weekend he took care of all my rust issues fixing that one spot. Now its in getting paint but the cold weather and ice we have had is slowing the shop down with little fender benders. They are doing mine on the side and i got a great price so i cant get on them to much. I have been following your thread for some time. You have built one great car and i just wish i had half the talent you have shown restoring your.
I did get lucky with this car she runs like a top and drove great before i took it apart. And everything on the car worked perfectly plus i got a great deal on it from the begining.

thanks for the compliments, it was not easy, many parts were missing and so many I had to build by hand.
also my Delmont had the right destroyed quarter and had to rebuild it because I could not find the part in the USA.
some aspect of your photo.
I go to work that is late, here is the early morning

Now you just need to put a olds motor in the hot rod project so we have a good thread to follow. Going to miss the updates and the videos.
