So I made the trip to Austin today to go check on the progress of the interior by Sculpt Garage for the Puma. I was blown away by the quality of the work. When I spoke with the owner/operator I told him that I wanted a vintage look that would fit the styling of the Puma and I think he is nailing it. The interior should be ready within the next week or two and then it is on to the final touches before delivery. I am looking forward to starting on the Fairlaidy so that I can have equal results on that build. Here are some photos of the Puma....

That is some top quality work, is the same shop going to do the Roadster?

Yes, they most likely will. It is hard to find really good craftsmanship so I will probably stick with them.

Congrats, and welcome to 311! Can't wait to see what you do to your Roadster? If it's going to be anything like your Puma-it's going to SICK!

The interior guy had a couple of professional photos made of the Puma's interior and he was nice enough to share them with me. Thought you all may like to see the results of a photo shoot with someone actually using a good camera instead of an iphone camera...

Only dealing with the last few items on the Puma then it is time for the 310. I will be interested to see if it is a numbers matching car as that may dictate a restoration vs a resto-mod.

BTW...I'm here in Katy, not far from you. My dad briefly owned a Puma many years ago.

Let me know when its roadster time!

It looks like tomorrow is the day for the test drive to identify any remaining issues for troubleshooting. Once we get the green light on that it is off to alignment, final polish and delivery! In the mean time, I grabbed the photos off of the interior shop's website so that you can see what they posted ( http://www.sculptgarage.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ). I am looking forward to starting on the Datsun and I would love to have you over to discuss the build as well as your dad's history on the Puma. I am looking forward to seeing how the 310 progresses and what I can do to make it stand out from the crowd.
