277 Progress Report

More updates from Gregg on the 277.  He has recruited another couple of members to work on finishing the restoration of the main compartment.  That's good news!


A few weeks ago, the center door was reinstalled. The seat bases were also cleaned up and painted silver like all the other hardware in the car.

Today the left side of the passenger compartment was disassembled. Paul H. and Steve will be restoring this area a little bit at a time. The seats were removed to make it easier to work around. As you can see the original stained glass is still in the car.



The area where the two seats were. The four window sash are being restored also.
