After removing the dead mouse (see this post), Chip started in on the list of repair items. The brake lights, turns signals, and fuel and oil pressure guages do not work (or did not work, Chip’s already gotten to the bottom of most of this). The owner also had a wood dash he had already purchased that he wanted us to install, so Chip has done that. The top dash pad and lower kick pads have been replaced as well. We’re (by we, I mean Chip while I watch and grunt like I understand what he’s doing) also replacing the bonnet release cable. Let’s take a look…

The windshield (and hardtop, not pictured) are off the car.

The new dash and dash pad are installed. Chip’s trying to get his hands out of the way.

See the shiny metal piece? It was a piece someone tried to use in the past, but it really didn’t fit. Chip replaced it with the correct part.

The windshield is back on since I’ve been there, so I’ll have updated pictures soon.
