All the glass is glass,..not plex.
I am going to leave the interior like it is for now,..I want to roll it like it is and slowly fix it up.
I will put my w deck lid I bought from Paul (bucket). I will paint it semi-gloss black for now, till all body work is done. And then maybe a black and orange Harley Davidson scheme.


The story obn this car is, a mail carier had it in his garage since he moved her from california in 1986. It was his son's who now lives in Chicago. Aparrently he used to race it. That is why it has a rollbar in it.

I installed a new narrowed lower beam today. soon I will be driving it.
