Check the fresh air intake hat. It's under the cowl but can be seen from the passenger floor board looking up under the cowl. 

I’ll check that out this evening.!!

Vacuum out passenger door this evening quickly, noticed a small flexible tab for holding a wire inside the door!!    Proof the door light was really a thing….. or at least a thought anyways….. this is fun so far… not enough time in the day.

Removing glass today documenting

quarter windows … both dated 9/69

rear hatch…..dated 9/69

passenger window…dated 9/69

front window was aftermarket that literally crumbled in my hands while removing

Drivers door window 9/70….”door and glass appear to have been replaced to that approx year.

Roof/door frame of body at top of quarter window showing some decay on drivers side, will need some repair.

So pardon my ignorance on the early cars, but how do you read / interpret the date codes on the glass?

I'm assuming it's the "M-214"?

  There is a proper name for the decipher……looking at the “white dot”, over or under letters of appropriate name…
