### This post will act as my account of what I have done and will be posting further pictures here.

I don't have any plans to do a restomod or fully modifying it but there are definitely things that can't be replaced so it has to be modded.

When I got this vehicle I paid $1,400 but even then I think I paid too much.

The engine was out of time, the carburetor needed tuning, and there will still be various other engine stuff needed to be fixed as one of the things is the main crank pulley wobbles. I will also look into the power steering system if there even is one.

I will definitely be getting an AC system at some point. It does seem that it has the AC compressor and lines but that's it. The blower motor does not work if it's even there because I have noticed that there is no ducting.

As you will see in the pictures, there is an explanation about the headlights and turn signals. Currently the right turn signal seems to blink normally but the left turn signal blinks slowly, or the left turn signal is blinking normally and the right side is rapid blinking, but by today's standards the right one seems to be normal. I replaced the rear lenses of the lights but I think I'm going to bite the bullet and just get new units.

As for the interior, both of the panels with the vents have been completely replaced. I added at least one lap belt, added a shift knob, put a rear view mirror in, and put a seat cover over the back of the bench seat.

Speaking of the bench seat, I am planning on switching over to bucket seats however one of the bucket seats that I have needs to be restored or reskinned. I also have plans for center console but I don't know if I want to get one from Amazon, find a random one on Craigslist or eBay, build one, or even find an oem one.

As for the body work, I am definitely going to have to replace the part that has the windshield wipers because they shave those off and I definitely want those back. I think the front end had a slight accident as the grill around the driver side lights does not want to stay bolted down behind the corner light (this was however fixed temporarily by putting the plastic that the screw goes into around the back instead of the front of the square hole. I'm going to have to find a rear roll pan or the piece that goes behind the bumper. That particular part on the corners are really dented in. I had found a website that had one in stock but I can't remember what site it was and it included the corner pieces all in one but it seems there's a company that actually makes them custom but they don't have the relief cuts for the bumper brackets. I would actually like a more modern side mirror set (aerodynamic) but that would probably be too much modding. I am still trying to figure out what exact color of blue this is to repaint professionally because my wife likes the color. I will also need to figure out a way to secure the fuel door as well.

I have a replacement shaved door kit ready to be paid for then shipped to me. I also have an electric window conversion kit ready to be ordered. On eBay somebody is selling the door cards, along with door handles, latch openers, and possibly other things but that will be on a day that I have worked 50 or 60 hours at work, LOL. I have a gauge cluster ordered that has the tach on its way along with a new Multifunction Unit to test to see if that will fix the turn signal speeds. Next on the interior will be various other Dash items and a new carpet. I may modify the door cards, not themselves, but basically add a gasket around to give a little bit more space for the automatic window kit.

And no waiting anymore here are the pictures...
