Still making progress - slow at times but it is coming together. I am having new seat cover installed on the front bucket seats as they were in really bad shape

----I don't think I realized that your 69 is white on white. One of my favorite color combos! Black side stripes would really liven it up, but I'd understand not having them if they weren't on the car originally.....Bill S

Thanks to everybody commenting on my car repair. To Bill S - the car is white now but was originally Phantom Green with Parchment interior.

I keep thinking your sound deadener is upside down. I think those black strips are intended to be on the metal and soften when warm and stick down to reduce vibration. Probably wrong, but it's worth looking into.

The paper work said to put the smooth side down. But it's not like there is a "smooth" side. The white stripes are raised a little - and the other side has small, shallow dimples ... lol - but I'll check. Thanks.

I do have the whole interior back in the car now and things are still coming along. Car still needs to go to the alignment shop - lets hope they don't find much wrong
