LED lighting for the dash panel.
(Preview)
HIi: When my car was at the shop getting the Crate 350 I asked about checking into the dash lighting.

66 B body trunk mat
(Preview)
Does someone have a trunk mat from a 66 Parisienne or GP that they know to be original? If so, can I get a picture posted so I can see what pattern it is? It's been so long I forget how it looks.

SEM Interior plastic/vinyl paint. Colour Question.
(Preview)
Anyone use the SEM system for re-colouring interior parts? What do I need to know for doing hard plastic parts, re; a console body? And more specifically, can anyone possibly tell me the stock SEM colour code that I would need to best match a 67 Impala/Parisienne medium blue interior? Say the colour f...

67-68 Bonneville column into a Parisienne?
(Preview)
Mark and I have been discussing columns and we are both curious if anyone has actually installed an American Pontiac column (67-68 B body) into a Canadian car? I am betting it would fit but a guess is not good enough!

1967 Grande Parisienne 2dr. Did they come with cloth buckets?
(Preview)
Another question for the experts.. Did the 67 Console Grande come with cloth buckets? Could be wrong, but it appears they were sold strictly with vinyl seats, the same seats as the 67 2+2. I've seen the USA GP with cloth, but am yet to see the CP with cloth. My idea was to obtain a pair of 67 cloth buckets, an...

Possibility of repro seat Covers for 66 Grande Parisienne buckets
(

(Preview)
Howdy guys, as some of you may know Dale at NOS was checking into the possibility of obtaining repro covers for these particular buckets as I think they were one year only, one model pattern and there currently isn't anything correct out there. He asked me if I would have any idea what the market was...

Power windows driver's control
(Preview)
My dad had a 67 Parisienne convertible with power windows. Apart from the usual 4-button control mounted on the panel door, there was another standalone button for the driver's window as well. In other words, there were 2 switches on the same door for the same window. My car has no such 2nd button and I'...

I just received a sample of vinyl from SMS Fabrics for my Strato Bench project. I now have a sample of all 3 materials I'll need to make covers (less a section of carpet for the lower back).

I need help to remove dash

My voltmeter gauge and clock are not working. Sticking my head under the dash and looking for loose wires didn't solve anything and I'm afraid I need to open up the dash to get to the back of the gauges. Has anyone opened up a 67 Parisienne dash and know in what order it needs to be disassembled without remo...

66 Grande Parisienne Strato Bench seat fitment

I'm test fitting the Strato Bench in my GP. It's fitting ok but I am wondering if the angle looks correct. Anyone here have one to check and tell me? Yes, I know this is a 67 seat but other than the seat back locks I'm pretty sure the seats are identical. The 4 speed option either must not have been available o...

Power Seat, best place to power one?
(Preview)
Guys, I'd like to install the power seat setup in my 67. Where would be the best place to get power from? Can I come off the exsisting power window circuit breaker on the engine firewall. Use a big wire? Add another firewall breaker? Or come off the fusebox, somewhere that can take a good load? Add the bre...
