Stunning Kartone!!!!   Brings back memories, and a tear to my eye.  I owned mine (Ivory/grey velour '79 model) 14 happy years and still turned to look at it when parked, up to the day I sold it.   Even my GTV6 never had quite the same effect.

Have you rustproofed the A-pillars (I see some plastic plugs inside)?  If not, do it.

Greta work, and thank you immensely for sharing the pics.
