Final assembly

Fitting of the restored, original interior. This shade of green was very-very rare in the day. Although it is very elegant even compared to present styling.



Unfortunately some of the carpets were missing, and this shade is unobtainable today. We went for a combination of black and grey color with success.


Somebody vandalized the original glove box cover of the car. 


I bought another from ebay.


Although it was advertised to be the same type/year, it was definitely NOT the same. The original opened nicely...


..the new did not.


Upon inspection it turned out to be slightly different.



The solution was to make one out of the two. 


Meanwhile the front end started to take shape. We bought a 2nd hand washer tank from the US.


Just like a new hanger for it to replace the old - quite battered unit.


The other side with the brand new cooler and pipes.


I decided to replace the original fuse box with a modern style. Although not original, it will be hidden under the cover, and will make a huge improvement in terms of reliability.


Final touch in the boot: a replica of the original stickers.
