Beautiful work on this, there are so many fine details to catch the eye.  Really like the subtle depictions of surface rust and that seat cover is gorgeous. Are those dents on the upper right rear corner of the body, or is that a reflection?  Just wondering the need for two shift levers.

those are just reflections.  I caught the two shifters as I was assembly and the photo taken from above shows the shifter on the column removed.  Thanks for appreciating the details!

Gerald, this speaks to me. Ride height is perfect, love the wide whites, interior, it's all very nice. Makes me want to try one of those "thread" seat covers. Elmers white glue for the thread on the seat ?

Cheers, Steve

Thank you. No I didnt use white glue. It is just thread laid on the sticky side of clear packing tape.
