Charger
- Hope G. Fiala is happy with the results of the polish job on his alternator. It took close to 8 hours to get it into this shape from what it was. We cleaned out a mud wasp nest from the inside, repaired one broken wire to the armature, cleaned out some of the inner corrosion, and inspected the brushes before re-assembling.
No, it's not snowing in our shop. This small hand-held sandblaster is ideal for removing the last traces of paint from the vent grill on the Charger.
We picked our seats back up from the upholstery shop this last weekend and did a quick install to see how we liked them. We had issues with some wrinkles in the back seat and with the black inserts not being straight. The upholsterer assured us she will correct any problems.
We had R/T emblems embroidered on the front seats. Overall we are happy with the interior so far. - But the rear seats will still have to be fixed.
We hung the dash back in last weekend. White steering column/wheel look good with this interior.
The dash pad cover came in black but will probably be dyed yet to give it a darker appearance.
We decided to insulate the inside of the trunk to make sure the car will be as quiet as possible (except for engine sounds).
Another shot of the trunk being insulated.
We got the rear seat back from the upholstery shop today. She fixed the issues we had with wrinkles and straightened and re-aligned the black inserts.
We also had the shop change the color of the piping from black to white. - Looks much better this way.
