Here are more photos of the vehicle in my previous posting.
While the tray is not original, damn near everything else is, I suspect. Side lights are present. Bumper is about the straightest one I have ever seen. I didn't take a front-on photo, but the grille is there, and rot free. Nose panel is also rot free. The window frames are in perfect shape, nothing more than surface rust, and both sides swing cleanly.
Seat covers look to be the original ones, but badly broken down. Would be good for patterns though, and would have been nice and soft, as compared to the thinner version I have in mine. In reviewing this particular photo, I see an original fan shroud sitting on passenger seat. I know the owner is planning an engine swap, so must write him....quickly, and offer to buy the shroud.....quickly!
Not actually seen an original sun visor before. The sunshine roof I brought home today, has the bracket and a portion of the arm which would have held the visor, but visor itself is long gone. When I visit my friend again in a few weeks, I will take some measurements of the visor, and get one made for my vehicle. Will post the details if anyone is interested. Might even remove the wasps nests prior. They may cause incorrect dimensions if left insitu!
Now this was a REAL surprise. A genuine, unaltered, unbutchered, battery box. Minus hold down top and wing nuts, unfortunately, but a correct top piece can be sourced easily enough. Once again, my friend may not require this tray, so it could come up for sale in near future. He puts things for sale on ebay. The original fuel filter still sits behind the battery box. Just goes to show, some fairly good finds are still out there, waiting to be discovered.
