Haha, should look good on my 86’. I also found out on closer inspection the insert isn’t glass its plexiglass. Weighs alot less than glass, but I think that’s why it wasn’t sitting in there right. I think someone removed the original glass for one reason or another, and tried replacing it with plexiglass and either cut it not exact, or didnt adjust it right. Im going to try and adjust it, and if I cant make it work Ill make a new insert for it.

> love the notchbacks

Its growing on me, I love it from some angles and others Im iffy. All about the weight reduction tho!

After the work tonight we are basically done.

Parts Tonight:

305 H.O. Motor W/ Full Harness  
Inner Plastic Fenderwells  
AC (Scrap Aluminum)  
Passenger & Driver Doors  
All Other Engine Bay Wires (Scrap Copper)  
Notchback Hatch  
Rear Crash Bar  
T-Tops  
Gas Tank  
Front Sway Bar

Still Need:

Windshield  
Driver Side Strut Mount Top Plate  
Rearend (After its at the JY)

Not bad, tomorrow after work Im gonna spend alot of time organizing everything and getting the engine off the Cherry Picker and onto the extra stand I have. After that put all the tools away that are still laying out, and I guess start on fixing the Notchback Hatch.
