Also before the heat padding, I layed out sound proofing on the firewall/transmission tunnel. The floor boards I left alone because I felt the heat padding would be good enough for the noise cancelling. Not to mention this sound proofing is the PITA to get off. (I'm also doing the roof.)

I've also used new white lithium grease in all moving parts for quietness and less wear and tear! Total hours invested in all 3 restorations 50. I also resprayed the metal bits that we're on the products with rust encapsulated paint.

The rust is gone and back to factory bare metal! It looked so good! Unfortunately, I had to paint it in rust encapsulated paint. I searched the web all over for keeping the natural metal look without rust but it was not as easy as you think.

Ahhhhh, yes my favorite! Aluminum wide pedal from Levy Rotor Corp .It took 3 hours to make the pedals look the same. I've wet sanded the edges and circles to create a shiny effect. (Yes I took away material but this is how it's done.) Man it looks good! Hint: Windex is very good for cleaning aluminum!

It was in the PITA to get the old plastic off. It was cheaper to buy just the lense. The housing isn't seen anyways and looks brand new inside .
