Things are coming along nicely. It's at the point where we're making decisions. "Should we do this now? Or, can it be done later?" Here's an example.



Actually this was an easy decision. The headliner had rotted out along the rusted body seam. The headliner is the same thing that VW used in their busses. Which the shop doing the work just happened to have in stock. They cut a new piece and used vinyl dye to match the stained color of the original headliner. This was one of those things that couldn't be postponed. The good part is we were able to maintain the original patina.



This is what an original floor looks like when you remove all the old sound deadener and glue. The next step will be to glue in the new sound deader. We expect the carpet to arrive on Friday.



I need your help here. I never thought this car had rear seat belts. Now that we've gotten everything cleaned up it seems we have threads for rear seat belt. Ok. Has anyone here ever see these rear seat belts?
