The interior of a 1975 Caprice Classic convertible. The seats and carpet have been removed and the floor pans repainted. The freshly primed driveshaft stretches across the passenger side.
Look. Technically, the drive shaft is back “in” the #GreatWhiteBeast.
True; it still needs painted and it’s not in the right place. But it is *in* the car.

I had planned on getting a professional to reupholster the seats in the #GreatWhiteBeast.
Now I’m leaning more towards buying a white set and a dye kit to do it myself.
My parents about to make their post-wedding drive standing next to the #GreatWhiteBeast decorated in the tradition of the time.

A white 1975 Caprice Classic convertible in her original glory.
The #GreatWhiteBeast fresh from the dealership in 1975.
This is not the full episode for this week. That drops Thursday.
This is a mini episode in which Dad and I rearrange the garage to enhance the feng shui for the #GreatWhiteBeast due to my having ordered the wrong parts.

The Great White Beast is a 1975 Chevrolet Caprice Classic convertible in ermine white. She sits in front on a closed garage door with a shop vac and garden hose in the foreground. Her hood and engine have been removed.
Pulled the #GreatWhiteBeast out into the sun for an engine bay washdown.
Next up: rust mitigation, priming, and painting.
