Been collecting parts I will need over last 14 years - mostly interior parts. I was able to run the car when I bought it (rebuilt carb, fresh oil and gas), restarted it last month. I spent the last 4 weeks stripping it down and sent to body shop last week. CA car so very little rust - couple of pinholes in rear window channel with some minor pitting of trunk floor, but rest is solid. RF fender was crunched (took it to a body shop class and straightened pretty well), other dings and dents around lower body. Hardest part to find so far was the wide rocker moldings - missing one, but found a pair on eBay last month.

Today I finally found a place I think will be able to install headliner when paint is done. I also am working on a 71 Challenger RT that needs headliner and top installed. These craftsmen are getting harder to find, especially here on Central Coast of CA.
