1st & last time will ever sit in the back seat of a 928. The q-tip sticks out above the roofline and with no front seats installed, plenty of legroom. T

Going with what Rob Edwards suggested a few years back when completing the Just Beachy build and will now be going dark. If you want to view this magnificent build, get you your a-- over to 3rd Coast this coming weekend & check it out. Later. Dins & T

You were able to reuse the donor carpet too, T?

We're very excited to see the finished product!

Thank you RR.

Jim, The carpet came out of the 79 donor car rather easily and was well preserved. Dindale did have to glue a little of the vinyl back down on various parts where the glue gave out. Paul C stitched & glued the front seams of the front bottom seat cushions and Rob Budd fabricated a nice raised center armrest. T

They just don't make the carpet like they did back then. Excellent choice!

I can tell by the loose vacuum tank that the fender is going on.

Looks great Tony.

Tony,

Great to see JP in person at Marble Falls and drive behind it. It's truly a unique creation.

This short MF video has some video of JP on the road.
