After hours of waxing and vinyl scrubbing. Surprised it looks this shiny considering the starting point.

Absolute units of cars. I’m still working through the sound system in mine.

Lovely Lincoln you got there, a bit nicer in the paint department than mine. Also looking into sound system options. Think there's a couple companies that make modern BT capable head units that look like older OEM stuff.

My paint still needs a claybar and polish. The underside is the most impressive. My late uncle was fully restoring the car. The whole frame and underbody has been sanded and painted. All suspension is new. New trans, diff, brakes, fuel system. Underneath the car is better than factory. He had more patience with it than I do.
I went full aftermarket with my stereo. Sony XAV-AX8100 fits perfectly. If you go to replace the speakers hit me up and I can give some tips. I had to 3d print custom brackets for the dash speakers. I can make you some or provide the files. The doors were straight forward. The rear 6x9’s are mounted in a very untraditional way so I cut part of the deck and mounted them on top. I ended up mounting 4 tweeters. 2 on the top of the a Pilar in pods and two on the b Pilar behind the seat belt mechanism. I’m close to making the sub boxes and electronics enclosure. When it’s finally finished it’ll be 2,600 watts.
