Default MY 70-71 Book

OK guys..
After a number of members have asked...I have started finishing my book after all these years. Initially wrote it on paper,handwriting..now having to transfer to a word processor.That has been my biggest hold up..just a pain..

Anyway, will need some help form some of the guys on the board.

Who has a 1970 Norwood car that they are restoring and have yet to fully disassemble?? I need a few items finishes documented. Please respond and I will PM..
I need someone who has original taillight assemblys that have not been restored. Will tell later why I need these. Preferably 2-3 sets..
Need a N car that has not removed the fuel lines yet..
Need paint markings on the pumpkin(center section of the rear end) and agreed paint scheme on rear end(tubes black, pumpkin natural cast iton??, 12 bolt cover painted or natural??) Instead of a bunch of answers, just reply if you have an original and would like to see pictures vs recollections from when your car was restored..

Thanks guys.. Hopefully will be done by Thanksgiving.. Looks like 2 guys on the boards cars will make the cover,one white and one blue..

Thank you..

Do you need my photos of the 72 T/A? I think I had some good paint mark photos. I can send you whatever you need.

Thanks Steve, but I stuck with 70 and 71 cars. Seem to me they sort of naturally grouped togather. Pretty sure 72 would have similar if not identical markings, but decided to only use pictures/info I know came from 70 or 71's..

Mine were removed long ago, but I may have the notes on the clip colors if that is what you are looking for.

Sorry, I misunderstood. You are looking for a '70 and mine is a '71.

- Any particular location(s) of the rear axle tubes/pumpkin cover (12-bolt) and the rear tail light assemblies?

- How would one get a copy of your book when it's finished, I'd like to buy on if they're available.

It would probably need to be a set of books , encyclopedia style.
He was going to do a LOT of pictures.
