Added an NOS spark plug wire guide to restore original engine configuration
Replaced the interior overhead lining because the original was drooping
Rechromed the rear hatch hinge because it was corroded
Replaced 4 tires and tubes
Repainted the car (hood/doors/rear hatch off)
Replaced all of the “rubber” on the body
Reupholstered the front seats with leather
Replaced the radio/antenna and speakers with a Blauplunkt (1 CD)
Converted wind up clock to electric (same body & face)
Replaced 2 carburetor floats because both had lost their seal
Replaced all engine bottom gaskets (still have minor weeping leak)

The car has been garaged for its entire life. Inside and out it looks great. Better than average chrome. The paint job is virtually new as you can see from the photos. The car is free of any rust to my knowledge.
