I remember those days of taking everything apart. LOL... I'm glad mine is a complete car again. Good luck with your project. I will follow this thread. I look forward to seeing its completion.

Looks awesome. Makes me want to go out and buy another fastback in the 65-66 range. My father had a 2+2 when I was a kid with factory air. I miss that car and I know my father does.
