    What is the option load?

    187 code Red Bucket seat interior is super rare in a 69 GS car, original to this GS?

    Daves69 Too many cars too work on

    Ethan,

    Are you going to be using the one piece floor with rockers? Recently saw one in a 71 Zone car. It is a nice piece saved the owner a lot of money installing the floors.

    I have red bucket seats in my 69 GS too. Never seen another red over red.
    Are you going with a white top?

    Looking forward to follow this project.

    Whatever top it had originally,...feel sure it was white
