Hi Ryan,
Thank you for your comments.
The exterior color will be according to the Kardex silver metallic.
The interior was just ordered and will be red leather with oatmeal carpeting,
from autos international.
The interior comes complete with new door panels.
These are the samples for my new interior.

I see that you've painted/ powder coated a C oil filler container. Are you going to use it on an A?

Hi Tom,
The engine I have is an industrial type engine and it had this oil filler.
Since it's not numbers matching I decided to keep this engine and perform an overhaul on it.

Show quality original handles.
Took a while to restore but totally worth it.
