Update .... Been working a lot and haven't really had the time or money to invest into the car. But I have done some stuff too it. I procured a set of wheel dollies for $60, so now I can move her around the garage with a lot less effort. And I got a good deal on a set of brand new wheels and tires, Crager SS and Mastercraft Avenger tires ($400) I have new seat, dash,shifter, and armrest covers made by lady over in Carthage, Mo for $85 in gray and black ready for install. Went and got more carpet and glue so that's ready to go in. Now I just need some time and a few minor parts (I think right front windshield strut cover for the headliner and a cover for the headliner) then time to start on the body work and paint and she'll be ready for the road. And there will be much rejoicing

The truck uses 5 on 5 15 so I don't think those will work. And yes the ones I got were BRAND new. Apparently they still make them and their not cheap. www.summitracing.com/parts/CRR-61815/My friend Sean bought the set new from summit racing and the tires (Mastercraft Avengers) www.summitracing.com/parts/MFT-39715/He bought them for a 82 Monte Carlo Project that he decided to sell, so he sold them to me instead of letting them go with the car. They only have about 100 miles on them. Their about a year old but they sat on the car behind my house the whole time he had them. Besides I got the 400 back because Sean helped me buy a $700 air compressor for the shop (so I kinda got them for free )

But if you wanna sell them for $10 each, I am buying , let me know where to send the money order. Seriously. I have basically the same rims on my bradley, but mine are old and corroded and those ones look way better. I would gladly pay $10 each for them. Sorry to hijack the thread Minax. Great work so far, by the way.

Back to the matter at hand.... Update.. Well I figured I would try to get some work done on the car so I installed the rest of the carpet, center console and dash board.. Didn't want to put the seats in yet I still have to finish up the blinker wiring so I need to leave the seats out for now

Got new rear glass for the car today , didn't realize that the rear quarter windows on the car were supposed to be glass anyway i got them home and thought I would put my own little touch on them These are NOT stickers but are actually etched into the glass, hand cut and all all i have left to do is tint the backs of them and get them ready for installation Also got most of the fiber glassing and window sealing supplies ordered, the remote door poppers, and i Think its about time to get back to work on it

Those look really nice. Definitely a nice touch to set your car apart from others.

Nice! Glad to see you back on here again, I wondered if you sold the little beast and forgot about us or if you were just holding off for a shocking return. 8~)

Minax, Your GT2 is looking great! I'm just about ready to mount the roof on mine and I'm going to mount it down like you did no webbing. Any notes you might add for mounting the roof would be appreciated. Wyn
