Winter is here!

Car show season is over. The plan was to update the suspension over the winter, but that is put to the side, because I brought home this beautiful Pontiac:

2001 Pontiac Trans Am WS6!

Currently working on putting a console in the GTO. I took apart the console, sanded it down, and repainted.

Paint used: Duplicolor Satin Black (on both metal and plastic)

Console before resto

Sand and strip the main top

Painted


Painted body

Glove box door

Sanded glove box (felt was dirty and ragged)

To use the B&M shifter, I had to create a stand, placed under the console.

To enclose the top, we have 2 options -
1. A solid sheet of black plexiglass
2. A curved sheet of plastic, heated and curved to the shape of the B&M shifter enclosure. I will report on which we use.
