Look close and you will see cracked solder joints.

Aliexpress FTW

Assembly. The dials are very delicate due to age.

Psst psst plastidip

Voila

The rear shelf was sooooo dusty that I was sneezing the entire evening.

Rear compartment lids before/after

Clean parts piling up. Everything is ready for assembly.

I lightly polished the exterior chrome trim. You can't be too agressive as it is aluminum with a very thin coating of chrome or nickel.

One of the headlight lenses was a little cracked. I sourced a good used lens.

The reflectors were just dirty, no problems there. Wiped them clean with a microfiber.

Need to wrap the lenses in PPF

As for the dessert: the engine is pretty much done.

Ceramic coated headers, just for looks.

This is the paint shop progress, dated last Thursday. It was primered one last time and should be painted by now.

Thank you for your attention!
