The seat rails on the right hand side were broken and twisted. Was lucky enough to get onto some replacements a little while ago. Also some floor sections that were sourced helped me to repair a rusty section of the floor on the drivers side.

The fresh air control boxes under the dash were in need of some love. Cleaned them up, removed the old perished rubber, painted and installed the new rubber seals. I found these air boxes were a pain in the ass to remove and reinstall but got it done over a few beers.

Engine is back in and have been sorting out a few jobs in the rear luggage compartment. Made a new rubber mat to lay around the hatch and gave the hatch a quick refurb.

Realised the rear seat/ luggage compartment closing panel was missing. So i pulled the one out of my '70 Notch and made up a new one to cover with black vinyl.

Never liked the original white and black interior mirror. Plus it had gone chalky and brittle. So i sourced an original '66 chrome mirror which looks much better...

Always hated the white dash top. So I sourced a fairly nice black one a few years ago.

Once I got the dash together I decided to change the ash tray to an early flat one with the little chrome handle. Also swapped out the black dash knobs for some original ivory earlier ones.

Still been plugging away at this build.

Seats pulled apart and checked over. Painted black with the visible parts painted in Anthracite. Prepared for Brad @ Bus'N'Bug to conduct some repairs and finish them off for me.
