yeah, I noticed the driver's side bolster is black leather/vinyl and the others are all cloth, is this a repair done in the past?
it matches perfectly the PERFECT door panels.
oh...
I bled the fuel injector lines, and the thing DRIVES!!! I drove it off the trailer, and parked it perfectly! motor feels quite strong, no smoke, and smooth idle...
I'm looking over the car more carefully now, and I think I will drive it like it is for a while, after I swap in some windows... then in the spring, do some body repairs to the jack points, and see what's up with the floor pan. small hole in the center somewhere, and the rear fenderwells have bubbles in them, not sure I wanna attempt rust repairs or not, but I'll drive the heck out of this this$$$ fuel season... 4 speed ought to help the economy!
I gave up the hubcaps when I got the car, so I'll put on a set of blue or ivory caps for the winter...
I LOVE THIS CAR!!!
