Hi y'all!!! Bigdaddy has returned AGAIN! Been REAL busy & gettin' ready to become a 1st time grandpappy!!!!! I just want to touch on several things (old & new): 1- Interior colors - way back when I did mine I tried to post pics (unsuccessfully) on the forum. I've still got them & probably could send them w/instructions to an email address if anybody needs them. I did my homework thoroughly prior & here is the color info: - overall interior color is SILVER/BEIGE, except for upper dash front/speaker grills, guage cluster panel, console, inside door handle surrounds , speedo/tach panel, steering wheel & column, all of which are BRONZE. The steering wheel rim color is the same as the darkest seat stripe. Instead of replacing the rim, ordered an excellent leather cover that comes with the same type waxed thread that is used on the original and dyed it & it really looks good. The Silver/Beige is available thru Corvette America. Most auto paint supply shops (NAPA, etc.) will have the Bronze. The shifter boot is black leather. The rear compartment cover, hatch trim & rear view mirror are black. The multicolor stripe colors will have to be custom mixed. Find the newest looking area on a door panel or arm rest & match to that. 2 - Carpet: DO NOT order carpet directly from Al Knoch; the carpet is made by 1 manufacturer & they get theirs from that manufacturer. I got mine thru Rik's Corvettes & saved @ $150. 3 - Diecast Models: In my opinion, AuotArt makes the best replica, but I couldn't find a price on their site but diecastdirect.com sells these for $74.95. If additional info is needed, please ask |

Welcome back BigDaddy! Congrats to become a GrandPa. If you want to send the pics to my email, i'll be happy to upload them to www.tinypic.com and link them here (thats what i would do anyway).. Maybe if you want to give it a try, it's fairly straight forward.. Ask, if you need a hand.. As to the AutoArt car: I actually think it's a bit on the silvery side, but the detail is awesome! :wave -Stefan |
