After letting the panel bonds dry I haven't done much work.  I had a huge distraction at work in what was going to be the Apple Blossom Invitational, but alas it fell though and that has freed me up to do some more work.  I am looking to get a new vin tag made and to priove that i really do own the car i took a pic of the trans VIN, which matches my frame VIN and engine VIN and title.  I've sit the nose on half a dozen times and still cant get it lined up right.  I have been trying various shim combinations and I am just not getting it too look right.  I did untertake rebuilding the heater box.  I wanted to install the seal kit and had to completely gut it to do so.  I also primed some of the rusty part it in just to keep it in good shape.  I didnt use the stock rivets.  I used pop rivets, the original style rivets are in a bag when someone wants to turn this into a trailer queen.

More heater box work.  What fun!  I got in a bunch of little parts over the last few days and I am rolling some of them out.  One of the parts was a new seat rail foot bracket, which got me too look at my seats.  Overall they aren't in that bad of shape.  I put rivets on the windshield frame trim.  I need to place my trim tag on the car as well, but ill wait until the paint is done.  I also did a little more glass repair on driver hood mount.  Also, mounted drivers side fender bracket and repaired the passenger fender skirt bond that I broke.

I know a guy who has a bunch of old corvettes sitting around and I asked him if I could take some pics to compare my body line up.  I left depressed after finding out I was worse off than I thought.
