As close as you are to the dash being removed, I'd be tempted to pull it and try the rebuild and bed liner fix. Keep in mind that if you don't like the result, you may have a hard time installing the full dash cover due modifying the original dash size and shape a bit with foam and texture. Let us know which fix you choose. Dennis

You can tell your son that I did four years of college in Wisconsin, got really smart, and now live happily & wisely in the California desert. You might also nention that the first sign of spring in Wisconsin is robin tracks in the snow. It's going to be 80º here today Dennis

$379 and no box!?!?!?!? That makes the $350 museum quality one, with box, a bargain Dennis

Nice.....but not $2K nice. Dennis

Welcome. A 1971 would be a great choice. I've had more than a few adventures with mine in the last 43 years. Dennis

Where have you checked for seals, so far? Dennis

No problem, just give your keys to the valet and come on in. Expecting an inch of rain on the valley floor and two to three feet of snow on the mountain tomorrow as Storm Watch 2014 hits SoCal. Dennis

Currently 75º and sunny by my pool Dennis

Fascinating. Tell me more.

I stare with envy every time I drive past the local Scion store. Dennis

I think you have your anatomy a bit confused. Tomorrow, try it without your pants if interested in freezing your arse off - unless that's what you meant by being out in a T-shirt. Dennis

Looks like a comprehensive project. How's the interior? Always good to see another '71 getting some TLC. Dennis

Go to HybridZ and type "black dragon bumpers" into the search box. There's a thread there with pictures and discussion. Dennis

Gotta love the Foehn winds. I live at the base of an 11,000 foot mountain. Currently: 83º & Sunny Dennis

Just saw the local five day forecast and it will be 87 degrees here on Valentines day. Probably about 92 with the wind chill. Dennis

Have you checked the back/inside of the fenders and hatch to see where the holes were before they were filled. Although it's now too late, the best thing would have been to sand the areas to metal before painting in order to see where the holes were. Dennis

Sound advice. Buy in haste, repent in leisure. Dennis

The Eastwood coating sounds like the budget way to go, in that case. Post some pictures when you're done with whatever process you end up using. Dennis

Keep the hood closed, don't worry about it, and enjoy the ride Dennis

Great looking Z! Always good to hear from another original owner. Dennis

Snow!?!?!? What is this thing you call snow and why is it on your car? Here in the desert, it's 68º and sunny. Glad to see the "Over 60" crowd adding to this thread. Dennis

Web site says "Out of Stock". Status? Dennis

Triple pulley to accommodate A/C? Dennis

I probably agree, but that " Kitchen Sale Burnley" message that's been open on the list for the last 17 hours is calling out to me. Dennis

If you can live within their ever changing policies, ebay works. I've sold car items there for over a decade. They do seem to like to throttle down the sellers, however, and enable buyers to call the shots in many cases. Dennis
