Looks nice! What was the toughest part of fitting your headliner? I've got to put one in my 72.

Man, I love that GP SJ of yours, nice work there on these progress pics ~!
The body and palladium silver paint look awesome, brightwork and emblems are sparkling, and the glass and interior pieces look damned good too. That's gonna be a helluva nice cruiser when it's completed.

You are doing such a nice job!, I'm so jealous! Some day i will be able to do mine! ps, Isn't it a PITA to put in the inner fenders after the outers are on?

Well, "to each his own" as they say. That same emblem was installed many years later on a '70 GP that I restored in the early 90's. I actually had a chance to buy the car back a few years ago. That emblem really bothered me and was one of the reasons I didn't buy the car back which ended up being a bigger mistake! If you like it, leave it. The car looks great!!!

IMHO get rid of it, The SJ looks good, I really would rather see a small Royal BobCat emblem than a Hurst, It doesn't look bad but seems out of place to me, IDK Your call
