A view of the rear interior of the car. There's a few things to see here that are not frequently seen- I won't go into all the minutiae, other than to point out a few obvious features: a few of the features which I'd label "stock PZR" from the parts manual (for lack of a better description) include the spare tire cap and 4-point seat belt shoulder strap mounts. Then there are a few obvious Works features, such as the roll bar mounts, some drilled access holes, and a Works fuel delivery system. There are several more details that enthusiasts can spend the weekend spotting! Also visible is a rusted rear quarter panel, which helps make this Lightweight Spec even lighter today than when new. Most of the trunk area appears quite servicable, but that rusted area will need to be fixed, with new metal. Of note, the 4 silver rivet nuts now occupying the existing spare-tire hold-down mounting holes on the spare tire cap are my "quickee" addition to the car- that's unlikely to be how it was done in period. I had a show deadline, and I needed to affix the spare tire bungee brackets using the same existing holes. The only options that I could see were to either remove the gas tank to access that area, or add a few rivet nuts - a 2 hour job vs 5 minutes. Done and done! Also, the fuel pumps are obviously brand new - a prior owner had installed later pumps of a non-original make and type, probably decades ago, so I put these on the original brackets, so the car could be displayed.

Har har har. 🙄 She’s a Scotch Collie

Looks like a good helper!

She reminds me of my Australian Shepherd. She wanted to hang out with me no matter what I was doing, even when I was welding.

I am so excited about to see this picture.After spending hours of looking at the picture I found a Z432-R doesn’t have a pair of shoulder strap mounts for the passenger side . The difference between them is a persons on board.Maybe it doesn’t a thing to be mentioned , does it? Here are the pictures which I took recently, 1969 Z432-R . I have a question. Do you see the two brackets at the duct opening for the blower motor ? I am thinking the brackets could be only for PZR. If so, how about a PZR body Works car like yours . I am curious about it. Also , a mounting bracket for an igniter, do you see it in your car ? Kats

Nothing like a hound around to keep you company!!!

I have to ask...is he a Boxer?

Bit late now, but a trick is to not install the new seal all the way flush so the seal lip rides on a new un-marked part of the crank snout. Use in a pinch, not the world’s best solution. I fully agree you are doing the right thing with this extreme case to use a speedy sleeve.

Thanks for the tips guys. I went ahead and ordered the gaskets, hopefully the screws come out easily and I dont have to rob the parts car.

Finally, after dozens of orders, I struck gold (or yellow) with the magnet.

Sorry, made perfectly good sense to me after 38 years working in computers. 😁

That was so Greek to me! 🤣
