Found time to work on the GLH

[ajakeski]

We moved into a bigger shop, so we've been busy setting up. I've been busy getting the AMC's on the road and keeping the daily drivers driving daily.
So today I wet sanded and buffed the GLH. Now we can paint the flat black trim and put the doors together.
Next it's time for the engine and trans.
Here's a quick photo. I'll take some more tomorrow.

That is the worst photo I have ever seen on this site. There is a horrible glare coming off that entire omni. You may want to get that camera checked out. ;)

Looks good Andy! Can't wait to see more of it.

Also, let me know if your still willing to help get my GLHS on the frame rack and pull the 1/4 panel and core support. The car is up in union grove now, but is easy to get at so I could do my best to work with your schedule.

Nice! When doing the black on the door trim it's also a good time to get the area between the taillights. It's not as noticeable on a black car, but it was an area the factory painted matte black.

Also the guys at Omni-potent just started selling new window weatherstripping, the channels and both the inner and outer sweeps. I know I had a tought time finding decent ones for my GLH as most of the factory ones are brittle, torn or cracked.

The flat black is next. I just wanted to get the major buffing work out of the way first.
Nice to see that Omni Potent is making more parts. I guess this means that the GLH is becoming a desirable collector car.
Maybe a Year One catalog will be next...
