Plus the garage is cold and the lighting bad. I should just swap garage and dining room. My life would be so much easier.

LOL I still use mine on occasion,
Thinking back to the first car I restored, '67 Olds Toronado, FWD, I rebuilt the CV Axle Boots on that table, lot's of newspaper. Those dogs weighed 50 lbs each!

Johnny,
Did you sell the car after you restored it or keep it?
I tried to ask you in a PM but your inbox is full.

My first one I kept for 7 years, the dark blue one I kept for about 5.
I'll check my inbox... Thanks!
The ancient one is/was named Joseph, son of Jacob. Ever heard of him? Thought I'd ask before I send you stuff you already know.

I finally have both door panels done. Well....sans the pockets/bags because I haven’t made up my mind on the design.
I also purchased new arm rest but haven’t installed those yet.
I got these door panels off of eBay for $40 for the set plus shipping. An absolute steal if you ask me.
Below are the before and after.
I know it’s not true to the original design but
Oh and I will replace the screws on the trim with new ones prior to install those are just temporary.

I thought maybe to mix things up I would go back to posting on my own thread versus taking over others (sorry Powerhouse) ...I blame Johnny.
Anyway ... I got the cab somewhat cleaned up and ready for some sound deafening...maybe.
I have to first thank my buddy Johnny for helping me out with some great tips and product recommendations without his help the clean up would have been much more difficult and time consuming. Thank you Johnny your tips and recommendations worked like a charm
And after....
