Jason,

I suppose the car could have been a time capsule with all of the great day-two items through out. However, the car was repainted once and the underside was painted white (as cool as that was back in the day ).

Glad your enjoying the photos!

Door sills are in incredible condition. The Roofs were obviously careful about not letting the seat belt buckle get closed in the door. Not a ding to be found (that is a tar like substance on the sills in the photos).

I thought the white underside was part of a Yenko/Hurst conversion deal. She will look great restored.

[/ QUOTE ]Real nice Sam. Now don't send those door sills out to be polished. Do it yourself and save your money to buy us dinner at the SCR.

That tar like substance is rubber compound from the good old McCreary Tire Factory where Earl worked once upon a time. By the way Sam and Schonye, the reverse lock out rod is still here and we also have the T-handle that we used on the shifter. It's actually the second one we bought since Earl stripped the threads on the first one.

We were just talking about ordering a rod for that. I guess if you want, you could send it out to us, or let me know quietly and we'll charge Sam double, and split it with you.
