Duffman's 79 Spark Yellow Restoration Project

[Duffman692002]

Update time, small but it's something at least.

I take photos for a couple of new car dealers and they have a company that reconditions used cars. They fix dents, scratches, remove stains, fix interiors, etc and I asked their interior guy if he would be able to match the paint on my interior pieces. He told me to bring them by and he would see what he could do.

Here are the results:











The color is an exact match. He used the factory over spray on the underside of the console to match it and said it's actually an older Lexus interior color by SEM.

Dont really know how I'm gonna reattach the console lid. It's broken off cleen at the pad. Since he was able to make an exact match I thought about trying to find one that wasn't broken regardless of color and having him paint it.

Nice maybe there is hope of me keeping the center console in the 2

That is nice work on the color match!

Since it's all plastic, I wonder if this guy can restore the color of my stock '89T2 plastic wheel center caps? They have a few spots where the AL/gunmetal color on the caps is fading out. Been trying to find an acceptable rattle can color that matches for a DIY restoration job, but no luck there.

I considered going to a body shop to have them restore them, but that's a pricey labor bill. Maybe shipping my caps off to Duffman's interior guy is another viable option, can you send me his contact info?
