Photo from the passenger seat a few years back with our house way up on the hill. The second one is just after putting in the tunnel ram. A couple of pics at the track a while ago. Right now have all the sheetmetal to rebuild the body. After Hurricane Maria was driving it for a while then...

I have the heater box and the controls out of our 70 RR. It needs a new home. I pulled it out 10 years ago as we need neither heat nor A/C here in the US Virgin Islands. $100 or best offer plus shipping, I would rather it not go to the landfill here.

Prepped for Maria, and a couple post Maria. New sheetmetal on the way. The boot lid had already fallen off before the storm so I blamed it on the storm and kept driving it for several months until discovering the cracked rear frame rail. At that point it was parked and the parts hunt began...

That is the route I am going to go. I think I have one located. No pictures of the rust at the moment but I can snap one tomorrow.

I just sent you a pm about that part. What price?

Do you have the sheetmetal piece that the door hinges bolt to? it looks like the piece in this link: https://www.jegs.com/i/Golden-Star/189/PL08-68R/10002/-1 The one on our 70 RR on the right side is very rusted. Hopeful you will have it as you said the middle portion of the car was not too...
