If the weather cooperates I should the interior all buttoned down by the end of the weekend. Then I will post some real pics :)

Small update..

Shifter boots are on and screwed down.

Headliner is up and being supported by the dome light (the spare crappy one, the good one is in hiding apparently) and the b pillars (not screwed in as i cannot find the good screws - must be with the dome light somewhere safe).

So, the pics:

Booties and removed fluff so the screws could find the holes.

Headliner, the dark smudge is actually a defect in my phone’s camera.

Looking good! But the good dome light and screws will show up as soon as you use other screws to put the boots on, so you might as well go ahead. :nabble_smiley_wink:

My trip to the breakers was almost a bust. Nothing for Elyza. But I did find some Bronco speaker grills from a bricknose..

Back to Elyza.

Got the carpet in and all the screw holes located. Got all the trim in too, best of all I found the good dome light! 🤣

It is raining here and I am done for the day. I need to get the shop vac out and have a quick clean up then the rear bench goes in. I guess that will happen tomorrow along with the rear door cards and front door pockets. Then I will get some glamor shots.

In the meantime here are some awful pics..

That's good progress. EDL is looking good! :nabble_anim_claps:

And glad you found the dome light, but were the good screws with it?

I am still missing a teaspoon, a steak knife and a mixing bowl…

How much is a return to Cahoots???

Well, in the immortal words of one of your countrymen:

She was a day tripper

One way ticket, yeah

In other words, I don't think there is a return. Once you are in Cahoots I think you stay.

(Yes, I'm aware of what the term "day tripper" alluded to. nudge-nudge, wink-wink)

Looking good.

The flaked clear coat on the hood, top of fenders and the vents finally got to me today. Dry sanded with 120, 220, 320.

There was a hole on the front drivers side from a wind deflector and a big low spot that both got bondo.

Hoping the weather stays clear for the next few days to allow for sanding, priming, sanding, painting…

Also dealing with a couple of spots on the fiberglass fenders..

Pic taken during sanding, you can see the hole and low spot that get bondo in the next pics
