She's looking fantastic, Patrick. And I totally agree with Dale that the green (113?) and butterscotch color combination is awesome.

Where did you find door panels, and how do they fit?

He bought those door panels from Hung Vu - Vintage Dashes.

Started working on the 240 after laying off over the summer. I continued some cutting of the clear coat, still need to buff. I did some test fitting of the interior panels I've had for years from MSA, I'm not super happy with the fitment.
The headliner was re glued to the ceiling, looks like I might have to redo that as well.
I put the motor back together and will be ready to install after getting clutch and flywheel. New wheels installed, VTO wheels - 16x7 -0, 205/55.
I'll be working on it over the winter, still need to install hatch glass after straightening out hatch alignment - too much gap on passenger side.
It feels good to get back to working on it...

Thanks to Randy for the center console, it looks great and gave me motivation to get back to work on the Z!

Patrick, I'm really liking your build and the choices you've made. The car is really coming together well. Excited to see this one on the road, hopefully soon.

Very nice, Patrick, everything looks great!

Would like to hear more about your hatch straightening efforts, as mine is slightly torqued as well, with hatch sticking up slightly on the driver's side.

Missed you on Bagdad run!
