Riveted together -- a lot of work




cut in 1/4 to fit
I haven't posted for a bit, been rather busy --- some pix-- GTO door panels fabed to my stock doors--- a lot of work but will give me the look that will fit the 2016 Camero interior. Finished fabing the A/C vents to fit under the dash , fits in nicely with the council
