Barney...being a fellow TX 02er....need lots more info on that kit!  I went to their site and it all looks really affordable!  How will that long console fit under the dash?  No center console?  More info please and reviews!  For under a grand...it looks amazing!

I had an unsightly square of removed paint due to a removed scuba sticker from a p/o.  I had Riley (bluebmw) make an appropriate sticker to cover the ugliness. Much better now.

Like the leather wrap on the dash!  Did you order that from somewhere or is it custom?

After trailering it home from New Orleans 7 years ago, the '73 Sahara is finally alive and running!  Zero spark initially, so reinstalled the old points and cap, and fussed with wiring connections.  Gave it one more try, and it lit right off.  Idled for 25 minutes to verify choke and cooling system worked, set idle speed and mixture, checked dwell, and disconnected the horns, which were blowing spontaneously at random times.  Next up: set timing and fix gas gauge and horns.  Then drive.

Rear package shelf and trunk installation? Front parcel shelf installation? We’re sitting on the edges of our seats, Barney!

 

Best regards,

Nice sticker!  That album happens to be on my shop turntable now!

Reinstalled driver door weatherstriping and built new console with Kooglewerks cup holder and Nav screen.

Ordered speakers for the under dash section.   Polished some chrome also.

Gave up on the DCOEs and fixed the horn.  I needed some positive reinforcement ?

Put my new cocomats in, and went for a drive.

First test piece on using the cnc milled dies went pretty good. Although one thing we noticed was the metal buldging/making a sharp corner on both sides of the pressed form. Although I rounded the corners to match the curve of the bent panel.

 

 

 

 

As it's my first time designing some die like this, I'll go a head and ask some of my colleagues at work what they think could be my problem. Hopefully we can get this right as it looks pretty promising right now.

That is an amazing effort you’re going to for the Tray drain recesses. Absolutely top shelf. I feel like there were irregularities in the OEM stampings as well. I understand and appreciate wanting to make something technically perfect, but what you have there is already 99.9%. I’d trim the openings and move on.
