Ok, here we go. The first pic is basically as I brought it home, I ditched the compact spare experiment and got a proper Comet hood. I grabbed the Mav one because the Comet one was rough, not realizing it would not be the same.
Picture 2 is that awesome racing interior. Cleaned up it is actually very nice! Were it not for A/C this thing has virtually no wiring or frills. No wonder these cars were so durable and popular. Very easy to work on!
Pic 3 is during cleanup, I had pulled the motor long enough to fix some leaks, replace the motor mounts, and ditch the unnecessary stuff, as well as swap in manual steering. Also shows the 15x4 from steelies I found, with the old bias plies stuck to them.

There's a teaser, next pictures will be when it is completely done and ready to go! As a matter of fact, since it's gonna hit almost 40 today, I am going to work on some little things this afternoon like the gauges and shifter.
