I found a couple spots on the car were it was touched up with a brush. It appears the paint got chipped when they installed the front and rear glass trim. I'm guessing the factory did the touch up. I had asked Norman and he said he never did and touch up. If he had he would have also done the door ding that made him park the car.

This is stuff that I have always assumed a prior had done to a car when I saw this stuff but the story of this car is pretty solid. And Norman already said he never bothered to go back to the dealer to get the missing mirror so I doubt if they did it at any time after he bought the car.

Those exhaust tips should hold a bit of water.

I'm really surprised you reinstalled that oil filter.
I would've put on a dependable store bought filled with Risolene,then shortly remove it & throw it away on as it will probably have some serious particles and crap in it after you start it up a lil more...You are going to excercise it a lil more,aren't you?..You could even cut the store bought in half to get a good idea what the engines like inside afterwards.
Keep the original filter in the glove box or console,or reinstall it for a special showing,as your's and Dons are probably the only two left in the real world today.

I was for you keeping the undercoating on too,but after seeing the brilliance and originality in that oil filter,I've changed my mind completely.
I'm siding with Shauger & vote for removing it all to see what other Van Nuys assembly questions she's waiting to answer.

If I don't cut a filter apart I have nothing to worry about.
