Thanks everyone. In doing google searches for info when a question arises, it always seems to come up with excellent information and pictures on this forum. The offering of help and pictures I have seen offered up by forum members has impressed me. I'm primarily a Ford guy (GASP!) but I dig the early Corvettes. This car came as a rolling chassis and a body on a rolling cart. It's has honestly been an enjoyable learning experience reassembling this 1:1 "model kit", except for the wiper motor install. LOL. While I have done complete areas of a car previously, it's always been a brand/model I'm pretty familiar with AND something I took apart myself, not one that someone else disassembled over 20 years ago. The assembly manual is a huge help but sometimes it doesn't provide a clear enough answer.
