Had no interior when purchased. Now it has custom airbrushed wood grain on all the interior trim, new carpeting and all new doorskins. Needs the seats recovered and a headliner to complete.

New paint in 2013 All chrome was redone except the front center and handles. Had to replace the front grille emblem - someone stole it the first day I got the car. All four dog dish hubcaps are original and show significant wear/curb rash. Can't seem to find any NOS the correct size. All five tires are original....yes, they are original, and are yellowing and a bit cracked. All the tubes have been replaced.

VEHICLE HISTORY/
PROJECT STATUS:
New items...


pexhaust, mount rubbers, new transmission, fresh to
end in the motor, brakes all around, gas tank, new brake lines, new headlights...although the front driving lights are not hooked u
as they are 12V...I didn't like the holes in the bumper and didn't want to just ca
them, so I found a new set of driving lights and just put them on. I think they look right on the car even if I have to rewire them in the future to switch them to 6V.


p



pI'm planning to have the headliner done in the next few weeks and plan on rewiring some of the car as well...some of the original wiring is cracked and needs replacing.


p



pMany extra parts left over from my piecing together..


prear window, a couple cormorants, trim, taillight, odds and ends, etc.
