Yay! Lucky you! If that yellow is the original, that was a rare color. Keep us posted on the progress.

I cannot figure out the original color. Where the spare tire carrier was mounted was a weird red orange color and when I looked at the roll bar it was blue metallic. Will certainly keep the original color whatever it was.

The red orange could be the original primer. Roll bar wasn't original so the color doesn't matter.

Floorboards are riddled with rust and the rear quarters of the tub have rust. Frame looks pretty good with minor surface rust. Did find 2 seat belts that look like aircraft style. Do have a fully intact interior light attached to the hardtop but, missing dashboard glass globe light. Found a spare door handle since passenger side was broken off. I cannot for the life of me get the drivers side rear door open. Feels like a catch that needs to be released where the dimple area is but, no latch is present.
