Joel and Brian, thanks for confirming the 55 trunk material. SMS has both the 56 and 55 material. They didn't state whether they had the cardboard for the qtr panels or not.
I'm not spending anymore than is required. I did send Bendix TV to Ed Strain. I have new wheel cyl from NAPA. Going to run new brake line also.
A little bad news today. The compensator links are bent indicating either running the TL thru the solenoids or failure of the limit switches. I think it will take a complete replacement of the TL motor and links. The control box also has a broken receptacle for the blue wire. I had never seen one of those break? The splines on the lever assembly are probably twisted because the TL motor will not move either way.
Bright spot is the orange and white leather looks like it will clean up to at least be presentable.
