Many! I’ll have to take pictures later, but I’ve now got the hood seal in, replaced drivers hinge pins and one set of lights, I’ve got a new set of side moldings. Steering wheel should be going on soon as well as a new windshield. I should have it ready for the CT spring dust off if the don’t cancel it.

No, I don't think I have enough leftover for something that big. I did start wiring the car up. Headlights work, blinkers don't. My brake lights flash rather than the turn signal bulb.... Also there's what looks like a white wire with a gold stripe coming from the harness in the trunk that I can't find on any diagrams.

New electrical gremlin. Brake lights work, park lights work, turn signals don’t. Any ideas?

'66/'67 turn signal switches are known for being faulty. That'd be my first guess otherwise move to the 9 pin flasher box.
As for the tool kit roll let me know if you need dimensions.
