Just a bit of info. I went to Hampton Coach and ordered my interior and left my seats behind to have them done properly. They are repairing the spring portions of the rear seat as they were in tough shape. Jim Rodman has the wood for the rear seats for the 2dr Coach and is shipping them out next week. Now I'm down to the woodgraining for the garnish mouldings. Have located the windshield garnish mouldings. Looks like I'm heading for home plate.  :) Leo

HI LEO. I HAD MY GARNISH MOULDING DONE BY GERRY LILLIAN IN KANSAS, ABOUT THREE YEARS AGE. GERRY SOLD HIS BUSINESS TO MIKE BENTON IN NEBRASKA. YOU MAY WANT TO CALL HIM AND TALK TO HIM ABOUT YOURS. MY GARNISH MOULDING WAS PHOTOPLATED IN WALNUT GRAIN. THE PEOPLE WHO UPHOLSTERED MY CAR, DAMAGED SOME OF THE MOULDING AND I HAD TO SEND IT TO MIKE TO BE REDONE. HE DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB AND IS A VERY HONEST PERSON TO DEAL WITH. I THINK THIS IS A GOOD PLACE FOR ANYONE WHO IS LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO HAVE THE MOULDING DONE LIKE THE ORIGINALS. IF INTERESTED CALL 402-339-8283 THANKS DON :) :) :) :)

Hey!! Stop sending people to Jim Rodman until he finishes my wood first! I ordered it 3 years and 3 months ago and I'm still waiting for the last few pieces.... sheesh.... :rolleyes: His work is absolutely great, but I want to drive my car before they take my driver's license away from me due to old age! The line forms here...

This is another reason why I own more than one old Chevy... that way I have one to drive, and and one to work on... Although, I frequently end up working on the one that I drive!!

Yep, I know the feeling, I often wonder if the guys that own a half a dozen of these old beautys ever sleep?.....

YEP MR MACK, I OWN ONLY ONE OLD CHEVY AND I DRIVE IT ALL THE TIME. IT ALWAYS RUNS GREAT,BUT THERE IS ONLY ONE PROBLEM, I ONLY DRIVE IT IN MY DREAMS?????????? WHEN RODMAN DONE MY WOOD KIT, I ORDERED IT A LITTLE AT A TIME AND JIM ALWAYS SHIPPED THE PIECES TO ME IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME. I EVEN SHIPPED THE DOORS TO HIM TO REDUE THE WOOD AND GOT THEM BACK FAIRLY FAST. I THINK JIM IS A LOT BUSIER NOW THEN HE WAS ABOUT FOUR YEARS AGO. I BET HE DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH HELP TO GET ALL THE ORDERS OUT AS QUICKLY AS HE SHOULD. :) :) :) :)
