I can’t say nothin’

Going on year seven with the 79.

Then the long lists of things to do to the other vehicles in my fleet that I mostly ignore.

Now you're getting it!! So let's see this thing getting ready for paint by the end of the month

If I wasn't enjoying having AC so much now, I just might!

Speaking of AC, I did piddle for a few minutes after work yesterday with the AC vents and those knobs I grabbed out of the junkyard.

This is the style that would've been in the Escalades of the era, these came out of Buick Enclaves IIRC. All the ones I found of these were either black or tan

I also grabbed this style out of Chevy Equinox's/GMC Terrains. This color matches the "Dark Pewter" or dark charcoal interior that I have better but they're kinda chunky looking

The vent just pops out of the housing with a firm pull, then these pieces can be carefully pried apart. You can see I've already ground down that one slat. The idea is to sand/grind down the fat "grab" area so that the new tab will slip over and can be epoxied on

I ended up doing one of each to see which one I liked better.

Unfortunately I glued the chunky one on upside down lol. I may just end up making 2 full sets to see what I like better

Got hair up my ass on my lunch break to do more of these. Did a full set of both styles of the knobs and we'll see which one I like better

These bigger knobs, gotta cut the back off. This stuff won't work with the NBS vents
