Let's try this again. A few days ago I got home from teaching in a remote area for a week, and got ready to spend some quality time in my garage. Then I woke up with COVID. Fortunately, so far I have been lucky with a mild case, and today feel much better.

I figured I was up to some small tasks, starting with confirming the shift rod adjustment. I can get all 6 gears, and the fore-aft position of the knob seems good.

So I can put the console back together again, including a new dark red heat lever knob.

Then I made a temporary mount for my O2 sensor gauge, with a rubber wedge and adhesive velcro.

Mount on the back of the gauge, with stand-off space for the cable plug.

I mounted the gauge inside the center arm rest, along with the control box for my hidden audio system. No radio showing in the dashboard. the USB plug port is for the audio system.

Then I did another round of side window adjustment. The left side is pretty good front and rear.

But the right side still gives me trouble. When I have the front high enough to seal...

The rear is too high and too far back, and the glass hits the weatherstripping and will not close.

I fooled a bit more, and got the rear to close, even if the fit is tight.

And the front is OK.

Maybe this car will not go out in the rain. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

A got the door cards from the guest room. These are almost the last parts inside my house--only the trunk lid and the windshield frame remain.

Time to sort out the original hardware--and time to order a few pieces (and get rid of some interesting PO hardware).

Best way to describe this effort and the resulting car is "work of art" Really nice.

Not sure if you intend to drive this car or just look at it, either way - Bravo.

BOB,
sure hope you continue to feel better. The car is coming along very nicely. Hope you can get the passenger door fine tuned to your satisfaction. Looking better every day.
