70 - 2800CS - 2270111 restoration - ode to the past

Not documented in pics but got the rear quarter windows in. Trim etc. obviously waiting on the front trim when the headliner is fully in.

Fitted the back carpet pieces. Figured I would test fit the seats... Still not happy with them so they will come out for more fiddling.

Floor carpet is not glued down yet of course... More work to be done in there and I don't want to mess them up.

Yes Scott. I sprayed lizard skin sound control and ceramic heat shield (2 different products) on the floors and roof. Really makes a huge difference.

Not really fun to crawl around on though... Rough on the knees in shorts.
 
One thing I totally spaced out on... If you noticed... There are no holes for the rear bumper in the new panel.... Whoops.

were they filled by accident? also no bolt holes in the side quarters?
If the reinforcement brackets are still present on the inside, then one could make new holes by drilling them through from the inside. Then at least the positioning is OK.

CSL panels do not have the holes for the under riders as the black CSL bumpers didn't use under riders.
Think about if you want under riders - if so, you need holes for them as well.

the lower valance panel is a new replacement panel. It did not come with any holes for mounting. And I tossed the old one. Side holes are still there. Will just have to mount up the bumper on the side and do some measurements to drill holes and fab up mounts. No biggie just a pain. And no Erik. I don’t plan on using the underriders. Think it looks cleaner without them. But I still have them if I should decide to put them on later.

i am thinking of putting the underriders on the bumper but not bolting them to the rear valance as i don't have holes either as the PO filled them when they painted the car ... and the car came without them. all the welds seemed factory when we looked at them in the body shop with paint removed.
