Mopar Lloyd Mats




My Lloyd Mats came in today. Mopar logo with neon blue thread. Ordered through Summit and asked which blue was closest to Mopar blue. These look great. I went with a slate grey mat to offset all the black in the car. I got the set of four but only the front are embroidered. These are very nice quality. 157.00 for mats?! Well, I was gonna spend it on something, why not mats.

New Shifter Knob







I received a nice McPhail skull painted shifter knob for Christmas. I really liked it and since the B&M handle was a dulled and crispy from the fire I thought it would atleast brighten the car's inside a bit. My dad tapped it out and it fits like a glove. We're getting closer to those spring temps!!!

Sleeping through the winter










It is wonderful have The General Lee in my garage. We trailered it to my place a few weeks back. I am taking a break on it right now, but I'll get back to it after the holidays. Santa called to ask if he could take my sleigh this year.. I told him I'd think about it. Merry Christmas!!

Introducing.. The General Lee
















As I walked around the car looking at a General Lee in the garage that I know is mine, it dawned on me that the end of this project, and the end of this blog, is drawing closer. With just little things left to accomplish on the car, I feel I don't need to bore the world or the reader of this blog book with minor things. I have one more big thing to do that might come next weekend that I've been waiting for for almost 5 years. To be continued...





















Today we got to play with stickers. The door, and General Lee script went on without a hitch. The rebel flag ended up with some wrinkles that will need to be shrunk. I can live with it since it is on top of the car and not the sides.

Putting the decals on we used the soap and water method. First we taped where the decals needed to be. Then just spray and squeegee.. Spray and squeegee.
