my crack (parts) supplier finally got motivated. we towed it to my shop this morning so i can replace the passenger side floorboard, rails and the battery tray and then it is off for blasting and paint.

here are a few before pics

 

I thought today was hornets nest day!

That should have a vented hatch, correct? Are the other early parts there?

im not very familiar with the early stuff so i cant say. the dash tag matches the firewall and door tag. this guy has so many parts i dont think he can keep track, or if he even cares.

Steering wheel should have dimples instead of punch outs. Vertical defrost lines in the rear glass. Speedo starts at 20mph...there are more

Pretty rough looking neighborhood right there.  Working on it there could be dangerous, overspray.
