I’ve probably spent over 3000 in parts

The bad:

The interior is stripped out, headlight switch was rewired to rear defroster because of a dead wire between the steering column and headlights up front, i traced the wire however i cannot find where it is damaged… i gave up and just rewired the fucker.

Speedo does work, however i believe the speedometer wire became unplugged i will take a look at this tomorrow

driver side window mech needs adjusting

when it rains hard some water gets inside the pass. side, everything was sealed and painted so no chance of rust forming, it just pools and evaporates. I believe its coming from a bad door seal.

Cracked dash

Pics are of the car / engine / floors / frame replaced and rebuilt

The white floor is just the sealer, its now black i painted it over with truck bedliner, it is very rugged
