Did a ton of work to it the last two weekends, just posted this in the

"What did you do to your car today" thread

I been on a tear with mine, (nights are getting shorter so weekend daylight is very important and I took total advantage of the last two.

Let me see if I can remember everything I managed to squeeze in those 4 days....

Engine Compartment went from YIKES to OK I can deal with this

New Door Handles and Knobs

Fixed a non working Head Light

Fixed some non working Gauges and Cleaned up A LOT of Wiring

New Battery Tray

New Plugs

Air Cleaner

Got the Radio working and pretty dam good at that

And I'm sure I'm forgetting a bunch of other stuff I did

I'm old and beat up but I needed these two weekends on it and it's done and I can drive it with confidence now.

The best part is outside a New Carb & PS Mirror I found EVERY SINGLE ITEM in the Trunk and didnt know I was getting it. In the trunk was Console, half the Door Panel, all new Door Handles & Knobs, Door Trim, Two Air Cleaners, New Plugs Belts, Hoses, 3 sets of Seat Belts, Engine Braces (still got to put them on), the Back Honeycomb, all the trim for it, oil filter, intake gaskets, new Hurst Pro-Matic 2 Shifter (dont think I'll use it since I rebuilt the oem shifter but I can use it elsewhere). There were also replacement kick panels and a bunch of other trim, buttons, and little pieces in there. I pretty much have used all of it now and it saved my A TON of money, WOO HOO !!!

Very Happy with it so far and it gets a lot of attention at the car shows
