Taking over the family project. Grandfather bought this car from a lease return from the original owner, passed it to my father, and now it's my turn to enjoy.

Welcome from Manitoba. I like the car but the dice on the mirror need to go. What are your plans for it.

Welcome from Manitoba. I like the car but the dice on the mirror need to go. What are your plans for it.

I plan on getting the vinyl roof redone and the outside possibly back to all silver. kind of like the black on the horizontal surfaces but not completely sold on it. the interior will only need a really good detailing and maybe a little touch up here and there.
As for the dice, sorry, they are staying. My dad bought them for his T-Bird when he was dating my mom. They have been in every vehicle he owned since.

Way to defend your dice! Alot of people on this site dislike fuzzy dice, I believe some think it's a Chevy thing? Or just a common (perhaps, over done) addition on vintage cars? I appreciate the sentiment. Lots of great members down in Cowtown to help out, and the odd one or two further up the road. Nice, unique car. Enjoy! And welcome.

I understand if they are sentimental.
