Got to clean the engine up a bit, re-did the console and dash.. replaced steering wheel, ordered interior set and top but going to wait until it's painted to install, Will be having new exhaust installed next weekend. Got the rear stripped..been working on this in whatever free time I have... near future plans include rebuilding front and rear end.
It's on the road to recovery

Thanks..getting there very slowly...
Actually I was going to post the wheel later, I am not sure what year it came off of or what it's even worth, but I also have all the hardware for a T/T steering column that'll go with it..
