TR2/3/3A TR3 Hood Stick Cover / Corbeau Installation Pics

[newmexTR3]

Happy Friday guys,

I've been meaning to post some pics of the Corbeaus and retractable seat belts that I installed for awhile now, so here they are.

Also, check out the white hood stick cover that I sewed myself and installed. It came out pretty decent. I order some marine grade white vinyl and used my old tattered hood stick as a template. It was a bit complicated, but I think it was worth the effort.

ps. check the 1960's Carello's that I installed on the front over riders. Still not working, but they look nice. haha!

Looks great Gavin! Maybe you can help me sew up some vinyl for my side curtains. I see you also washed the car. :laugh:

Looks good, and fit doesn't look to be too cramped either. Nice job.

Hey Gavin, I forgot to ask...did you get the rack and pinion conversion in yet??

Hey Art, I'm going to try to tackle that tomorrow actually. You did it by yourself, right? I'll be alone when I do it.

Yeah, I did it myself, but the body, radiator and drive train weren't on the car!! :laugh:

I would think that the hardest part of the job is taking off the front apron, and you've done that several times, so it should go without a hitch. You won't believe the transformation of the steering. Out of all the mods that I did during the restoration, the R&P had the biggest impact.

Edit: I'll be home most of tommorrow, so I'll PM you my phone number if you have any questions.

Beautiful Gavin!

I've seen several 3As with high buckets that I thought didn't look quite right, but I think yours works very well - looks great. Now you need have Art convince you to pull that front bumper and put in a rally bar or something for the running lights..
