The tops of the struts are also unfinished. We are concerned that these may corrode, especially the threaded sleeves. We are hoping our plating shop can zinc dichromate just the top portion as paint would be too thick.
And we thought not having to stick to OE parts would make this project fun!
On a brighter note we did have some small victories with the dash. We found and mounted a VW Beetle headlight switch:
And the period correct heated rear window switch:
Next update should include how we solve all the suspension issues, hopefully.
