The windshield and rear window were removed and minor rust was found at the windshield base that needed some metal work. Fortunately, the rear window channel needed only a little tweaking otherwise was in great shape. The rear window’s seal had a breach at the bottom channel and would let water in the trunk, but, fortunately the car led a garaged life, so no damage (rust) in the trunk. The entire interior is now out, save for the dash and steering wheel, so this is getting pretty serious for a ‘scuff and shoot’! The front fenders were removed and the back sides and inner fender wells were covered with something like ‘cosmoline’ that is practically impossible to remove, so more work needs to be done to get them ready. The original carpet (tags are still on the underside) got a first cleaning along with the original seatbelts. The front bench seat base is pretty ripped and worn (hence the seat cover) and we’re going to take it to the upholsterers to see if they can match the vinyl grain and pleat pattern. The seat back looks to be in nice condition.
