Alan I think I've saved all the pics you've posted of that terrific restoration. Someday I'll take the plunge and do my '71.

Funny how things change even in the same year. My '71 has AC and with that the rad is different, has no expansion tank and a plastic shroud! I'll see if I can round up a pic.

Kind of like this. ( not my car but one that I took at the last NCRS regional )

This one with air and mine with air look almost exactly the same. My radiator cap is wrong and so are the covers but mostly correct from what I can see. This is going to be fun.

Got interior pictures today from a correct color car and received carpet sample today as well. Will begin to piece the parts together soon.

Again, thanks to all, much appreciated.

David

Hi David,
I looked at your pictures and it looks like you have a pretty nice compartment and engine to work with. I see a few things I wonder about but many more that seem right on.
Hi Frogday,
You're right, I haven't posted any pictures of the whole car. And.... I'm not sure why. Very, very, few people have even seen it during the restoration or after. The engine compartment picture from the passenger's side and this one are my favorites of about 750, (and still growing).
Regards,
Alan
