Man that all looks nice. Love seeing the door panels, seats center cushion, radio, etc. in the car. Do the seat heaters get toasty? The top looks terrific. Just amazing work. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Hey guys- Thanks for thinking about my car. We are waiting for the engine to be installed by an excellent shop. Unfortunately the shop lost 2 mechanics at almost the same time, one who just had a 4-way bypass so I do not expect he will be back to work very soon. The shop owner is working on the car, but he has a lot of cars in his shop. It is moving, just slowly. It is frustrating, but I want it done correctly- and this is that shop. So, until the engine is in and fired up we all wait- sadly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I'm 10 min from that shop and no doubt it will be worth it at the end.
Can't wait to see your beauty done. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Wow. Beautiful for sure.
Honest question: in post #1548, are the fog and hazard switches reversed? Both my previous 73 1.7 and current 74 2.0, they both have the fog switch closest to the column. Maybe the -6's are different or is this personal preference!?

Thanks for looking at my thread and commenting. I just looked at the pictures of my car when I bought it in February of '10. From all appearances it had never been apart and the switches are as they are currently installed. Additionally, I recall both my other 6's having the foglight switch next to the headlight switch. But these cars are approaching 50....so anything could have happened. I have the factory owner's manual but it is tucked away. I know that would definitively answer the question.

I read this thread all the way through, including Part 1.

What a great read, and thanks for documenting all of this.

I cannot wait to see this car gracing the roads here in the East Bay.

Fantastic work.

Thank you Steve - That was quite a time commitment. You will definitely see it causing around and I am quite familiar with Castro Valley. I am looking forward to having it back home. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Bob- Perfect. That answers the question. I recall when the cars did not have the fog light switch you could feel the hole behind the basket weave material between the headlight and emergency flasher switch.

Very cool - so it IS different than the -4's. I'm guessing it would be due to the left-side ignition switch.

Carry on!!

That's looking pretty nice.

I might be in Irvine this week bumming along on Shar's work trip. I wouldn't mind putting some eyes on this resto. Research you know...


@Socalandy - You've been absent for quite a few RRCs. Shar and I haven't seen you and Karen in ages. Available Thursday next week for a beer? I'd like to talk to you about a few things. Let me know.
