Its been tapped it the front but was fixed very well and the hood front apron and the paint was blended on the fenders.

The door panels are orignal but the seats have been recovered and the headlined is gone along with the carpet.

The motor runs alright but needs a tuneup but it need a tranny rebuild as there is no reverse.

I paid more then I really wanted to for it but is is og paint and a sunroof which is excatly what I wanted. Ill get some more pics up in a few days

Its kinda funny the guy I bought it from was completely amazed that I was not paint it, he was like you're really not gonna paint it? I was like nope its only og paint once!

Some interior pics

og door panels

The dash is really nice but I think its a repop

I think the seats have been recovered

I made the window cranks as the other ones were broken

The motor has an alternator but I dont like it so im putting the 67 only generator on it so if somebody wants the alternator pm me

You've got PM.

I should probably mention that the alternator is not the good kit that is avaliable. I have no idea what it is from and its custom how ever it does work

First - nice car.

The back seat looks original upholstery.

That dash IS really nice and I don't think it's a re-pop. Chrome trim and no one repops with the correct speaker grill like that. The arm rest is really nice too, that can be a pain to find. Looks solid dude, congrats

Almost all the holes for the speaker are not punched out.
I had the arm rests recoverd

Is your sunroof complete and does it have og parts or new? As everyone on the net knows, I'm determined to get mine back to working order myself and I'm interested in knowing if people are using newer parts (ie steel vs plastic). LOOKS GREAT SO FAR!

That is an older WCM repop dash. They pop up every once in a while.
