Thanks. I will take lots of pictures and post them. Right now I am trying to get permission to park the two behind the guests on the lawn, but I think I am going to lose that battle, we'll see.

lol, have you ever had that eddie carb apart wally? i'd be worth it to hit a radio shack or find a place that has 'forceps'. Not that its as complicated as  surgery, but it sure helps grip the 'jebus clips' and keep them from zinging across the garage!

Something similar to these, guys at radio shack may look at you crazy if you say forceps, picture would help though. Not sure on what they call them...

Just installed rear window louvers on the '71 this past weekend. They are absolutely beautiful to look at...
I'll have some better pics soon...

They're the Gean Gregory Repro's of the original louvers. He has them on EBay for $1200 but I had to pay an addt'l $250 premium to get them shipped to Hawaii  :swear:
Not to mention another $90 for the correct polished pins, $6 in Restrick rivnuts, $6 in correct stainless hinge screws, $15 louver gaskets, yadda yadda yadda  :pullinghair:
