Thanks for replies and nice comments. Yes, the seats are all original, as is the carpet, door panels and even the dash is somehow not cracked. Heck my '72 coupe that I had years ago was falling apart inside in 1980. I remember the dash had a huge split. Here's a couple more pictures. I've got it lined up Wednesday to get new tires (Cooper Cobras) as these Eagles are ancient. It has a Ziebart sticker on the passenger rear window and I have the receipt from 1978 so maybe that really did help it survive. I have a receipt that they replaced the rear glass in 1982 but I don't know if the top is original or not. It looks great and fits perfect.

The Ziebart is great stuff. I had my 73 convertible Ziebarted in 1975 and it saved it from any rust through! It was hard stuff to get off under the hood when I restored it.

My original Ziebart sticker is still quarter window too.

Just bought a 73 convertible 302 2V that is a 73,000 fairly original car short of a repaint. Found the original owner info in the glovebox and it was sold new at the Ford dealer in my wife's home town. Needs new tires and cosmetically the rear quarter trim panels are gouged so it's the dilemma of vinyl covering these or getting the repros which look questionable. Otherwise look forward to going through things but so far it runs great.
