Here is a photo of the back lines on a 7/70.

Very nice Arne. Two things are certain here, 1) you will enjoy your new car and 2) someone in Norway is getting a great car. Dan

And the floors

Some of the floor rails, the first one shows the pile of stuff that was inside the rail.

And more

More updates.

I went out and looked at my car and can not find a red wire in the body harness.

Step L is for the step light on the right side. Do the wires look like the blue taped ones in the photo

I think the fused blue wires are for the blower and rear defrost. My guess for the black is the cig lighter. Dan

I think the unit is stock just not the bracket

Blue: what makes you believe it is not stock? The part I can see in the photo looks stock to me. Dan

When I do a search it comes up as a engine harness. 71-01 to 71-12. The dash harness shows as a 24013E4602 Dan

With this, it was not as pitted as the photo looks. Dan

While digging through my pile of parts, I found that I did not have a good outside mirror. So I decided to try and see if I could bring one of the damaged mirrors back to life. I picked one that had a major crease on the backside and a couple of small dents. Using a hammer and a blunt chisel I was able to open up the outer fold that holds the mirror in place enough to get the mirror apart. After some hammer and dolly work, a file to knock down the high spots it started to look OK. Some sanding, a bunch of power buffing and polishing and it looks good. Slowly folding the lip back over the mirror with a body hammer and it is ready to use.

You are correct I meant mally002. he owned a green car before his white one and he is in Knotville, TN. http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?30772-Car-back-from-Maaco....Pictures-attached&highlight=mally002 Dan

I think that car was owned by a member here (manny002 ??) but he sold it a while ago

Looks great, here is a thread with others restorations http://www.classiczcars.com/forums/showthread.php?23919-Dash-Repair-Process-Pictures&highlight=dash+repairs

Fastwoman: I got them at Princess Auto, Canada's version of Harbor Freight. It looks like they sold out though. http://www.princessauto.com/workshop/hand-tools/clamping-gripping-tools/locking-pliers/8304776-8-parrot-jaw-locking-pliers

These vise grips have worked very well for me.

No problem, here is a photo, it looks like the step light wires are on the body harness as well.

Blue; I just checked my car and it looks like it it plugs into a connector on the harness to the back of the car, not the dash or engine harness. It is a connector with two wires a black and a red with blue stripe. Dan

Blue: Let me know what you still need after Arne helps you. I am sure I most of what you want. Dan

Yes, I used the Caswell copy-cad.

Blue: I used this thread to do the work on my carbs and look what happened, great write up . Thanks Dan
