Great talking to you Doug, and thanks for checking your stash. I'm still looking for anyone with this program that can check it out for me.

Stopped in to check out the car this week. They finished up the painting of my NOS grill, it turned out great. They duplicated the body color overspray from an original grill that I supplied. There were a couple of spots they weren't happy with on the body o they did a little more wet-sanding/buffing to clean those up. Should be hanging the front sheetmetal this week. Played around with more of my original interior parts. Got the pillar post trim (closeup pic is before/after cleaning) and windlace cleaned up. Also cleaned and ironed my original water shields. One shield was ripped completely in half, so I glued that back together. Ironed the major creases out....far from perfect, but they're original and hidden. Finished repairing my trunk divider by gluing the hanger holes back together and glued up that big ripped section. Ironed most all the warpage flat. Same as door shields, not perfect, but original.

Really enjoying this thread and how you are trying to re-use as much of the original stuff as you can. The car looks great.

Few more from today....
One fender on and driver side glass back in. Non-spoiler trunk lid mounted - the last time this car was without a spoiler was the spring of 1970.

 Since I'm going to be cutting it close I've been going through my parts to make sure I have everything ready to go once I get the car back home. Cleaned up my steering wheel horn shroud, radio knobs, parking brake components, etc. Again, some of these items aren't perfect, but they are original to the car.
