Dateline - 07/09/2017 - Well, looks like I got the gas smell fixed. I can only figure it was the fuel line I bought. These new alcohol based fuels need special fuel line and the marine grade I purchased seemed to do the trick. Here is a picture of the finished setup:

I did more work on the back upholstery, finishing the filler pad on the left had back seat and the seat belt well at the base of the seat. Here are pictures of the right hand side. The left looks the same.

I also worked on cleaning up the hubcaps. They had rusted inside the caps so I used some Navel Jelly to get rid of the really thick stuff and then painted them with rust inhibitor paint. I will paint them next weekend. I also removed the chipped paint around the Jaguar Head emblems in the centers and will mask and paint those too. The caps are not prefect and have a few spots of rust in the chrome, but I'm going to use them for now. They really need to be re-chromed, but I can worry about that at another time.
That was about it for Sunday.
