Looks great - were you able to save the original carpet/door panels, etc. as well?

Door panels & seats are originals and in great shape from what i remember but unfortunately only half the carpet survived and the racoon took care of the sail panels and headliner & firewall pad. If anyone out there has a pair of original sails, headliner or even original carpet for non console car please lmk as I'm about to make an order in the next few weeks.

Photo 577 - Are of the drivers door and glass while cleaning. Simple ole glass cleaner, razor blade and a cotton towel.

Photo 578 - Glass after cleaning. Not perfect by any means but its not horrible. I might hit it with the da polisher later on but for now it will work.

Photo 581 - 582 - Door with original paper reapplied. Note that the door handle mech sits on top of the bracket and the arm will be applied over top of the plastic. 2 small holes were still present in the plastic cover.

Photo 583 - With a little effort and choice words the door panel finally settled back in to its original resting spot. Panel still needs to see a good hot day outside but other than that the panels are in great shape.

Photos 584 - 585 - Decided to change things up a bit and while the column was out (still waiting on my lower bearing which hasn't shipped in over a week and still haven't got word from Groundup if the manufacturer has the dang thing..) it got me thinking about the tach placement. I could go the traditional route and place it on the column or copy the Yenko style and screw it to the face of the dash (wasn't doing that). Then I remembered this weird hole that was previously drilled in the lower center of the dash. I assume for a gauge or some sort of switch but it wasn't done at the factory. Then I saw the screw holding sec flasher and it hit me.

Photos 589 - 590 - Door glass rolled up and door closed. Also made a video of the door closing.

Photos 592 - 593 - Ran across one of the earlier photos when I first went to inspect the car after my fathers passing. Dad passed in '06 and this photo was in '10. Comparison photo.

Photos 600 - 601 - Time for the passenger seat to get some attention. Citrus degreaser, fingernail brush and elbow grease.

You have some serious patience! Great work

I just read through this entire thread Darrell. Great work as usual. I really appreciate your patience, attention to detail, and sharing your methods/techniques with this community. Can't wait to see it all come together!

That interior is cleaning up nice!!

Thanks guys. The replies are appreciated. Wrestled the passenger side door panel on. Didn't take a photo of the water shield as its the same as the driver.

Photo - 606 - Glass adjusted to factory locations. I chose to not blow apart the doors as the glass was still tight and smooth on the roll up & downs. Just re-lubed all the tracks, mechanisms etc and carried on.

Nice to see it coming together so well.
