I have the interior back together. I am pleased with how it turned out but I am not done with it. I still have to clean the headliner somehow and some more trim.

Ryan Brutt will be here Friday so I had to finish getting it together so he could see how it cleaned up. Ryan is the guy that found the car and put it in Hot Rod magazine. Not sure if…[Read more]

Where do you live at. That place is beautiful! I would love to live near mountains

I was not going to go this year but now I plan to go. I am not a player for it but want to see the car. Will you be there or a phone bidder?

Glad to see you are able to post here again Jim. I may take you up on the silver vinyl, I will see if I can find a good original first, I am not the greatest at this kind of work. My local places don’t have the correct color that I can find but I did think about it. Thanks for the link to the bases. I had the originals on the automatic car…[Read more]

The lighting is off and I am not good at pictures but the lower door panels match the carpet now. I took them off and cleaned them up and sprayed the carpet section. I also polished the door handles and window cranks.

I am looking for a nice passenger side silver arm rest pad. Something that is real nice. The one on this car has a stain on it…[Read more]

At least I think they sell them

D&D aluminum V8 sells them but not sure what they would cost.

Made some progress on the interior. I had to spray the faded carpet and they turned out nice enough for me. I can not get the exact color for the carpet but it is close. I taped off the door seal area for a reference to the original color. The color is close but the original had a little more shine to it. It is MUCH better than it was. I have not…[Read more]

FYI for anyone needing to know,

I can not find the correct color for the carpet but I got close. This does not have as much shine to it but the color is close. I taped off the door seal area so it would show a good reference. I used SEM Titanium Metallic 15253. This is close enough for most people but if someone need factory perfect it may not…[Read more]

Wish I could help but never played with a convertible. Have you tried asking on Classic Oldsmobile? May also try Buick V8, I know some of the 61-63 Buick guys hang out there.

Very nice! thanks fr posting

Looking at the SEM chart for what they call medium gray I believe is way off but that is also going from an internet picture of a color chart. I sure hope to find a correct color of there paint for the carpet because my carpet is in very nice condition other than fading. Not sure if you ever used the SEM for carpet but it is amazing how good it…[Read more]

What is the correct name for the silver interior on the 62 Jetfire? Is it the same as the silver of a 63 Deluxe Station Wagon Platinum Interior? I have an interior color book for 63 and platinum shows Medium Gray for the carpet.

I am not even close to a professional at matching color but wondering how well the arm rest pad matches the carpet when…[Read more]

I was able to get the original trunk mat out without destroying it. I took it out and cleaned it the best I could. It is stained up pretty bad but it is in good condition over all. Also detailed inside the trunk the best I could. This car is cleaning up so much nicer than I thought it would when I got it. I was also able to determine that the…[Read more]
