I especially like the fact that you own and use a &quot;MR. Coffee&quot; coffee machine, Very Cool!

I spent today wiring, installing the accessory drive, and started installing Dynamat in the 59. Here are a few pics I snapped.

I blacked out the Dynamat inside the doors so it can not be seen.

Tim, did you get a chance to drive the car before/after the sway bar installation? I bet it made a huge difference as I've been messin' around with one of these larger X-frame cars myself and they do tend to kinda wallow around a bit. Especially the 6-cylinder cars because they didn't come with a front sway bar like the V8 models.
