      OK , i got the material from CARS and pulled out the sewing machine and started stitching ( its been a while )

      Thanks , and Yes ,i was real happy to get it for what i did.

      As far as the 1/4 goes ?
      its not specificly set up for the 1/4 but more for a street cruiser - POSER you might say ..BUT, it does have some power and with a couple minor changes , i would say High 10s low 11s on motor.

      Right now it has 3.70 gears - Good if it was set up for Juice.

      MAYBE , just MAYBE , i'll find out Sunday at the local strip.


      Thing is , I already have a interested party for the car so i may not have it long.

      I took the upholstery off the seats , Made patterns off them and started stiching.
      I started thursday afternoon and spent a couple hrs and then worked on them today( friday) and was cruisin the car by 6pm.

      Probably have about 6hrs total in them and $325.00 in materials.

      Thanks guys , it seems to be going over good at the local cruise ins as well .
      I even picked up a couple upholstery jobs from it ....LIKE I REALLY WANT TO WORK !
      that just pulls time away from my toys...LOL


      I've always liked the houndstooth , especially the Yellow and the Orange and may end up putting it in the 69 convertable when its time.
      WONDER IF ANYONE MAKES IT IN BLUE ?
