Chris Simmons from Color Match came by
to assess the seat and headliner repairs. Chris
ordered the headliner and took some color samples from under the rear armrests bases to see if
Kenny could match the color.
The fawn gold metallic color and is
very difficult to match. Several paint stores
wouldn’t attempt to make it. So if Kenny
couldn’t do it, I would change the interior
color to black.
Chris called and said Kenny ordered some gold dust powder for the dye and they shot some tests and it was a perfect match. I guess that’s why they call there upholstery business Color Match, not Color Close!
One of the first things I did was replace
the front springs.
The front of the car was very stiff and sitting
up about three inches (station wagon springs)
bad idea. I found a stock set at
a local auto parts store.
Next thing was to replace the AFB 4bbl
with a tri-power carburetor set up.
