This forum is a wealth of information. I too am having the same issue with Jeeves interior. I also have a multitool and I wonder why I didn’t think of this. I tried it out last weekend and it works like a charm. Keep a vacuum or dust collector handy though.

Oh no Ed. I am holding your favor in reserve. Next step is getting the dashboard back to working order. Are you good with electricity? I did manage to get the bumpers back on. Once my floor pan arrives, that is when I am going to need your help. We need a play date.

Thanks for the advice you guys. I understand how it fits together. After having wrestled with it a bit I find that I need some safe way to force the  right side frame strip over a bit so it will allow the bumper bolt to fit in the hole. A big C clamp?

@edsnova I would love to have you and Bridget visit Jeeves. I would welcome some first hand advise and critique as well. You can make suggestions for my garage as well. You can help me get Jeeves onto the lift too. I am already starting to think of things to upgrade.

@billnparts do they usually come in red? I haven’t seen a red one at all in the wild. There are a bunch if you look online though.

So what date is the VA cruise? I need to get that onto my wife’s calendar.

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for helping me get here Ed. I do hope to have “Jeeves” done in time for the convoy to VA beach. Here is what he looked like before I took the nose off to fix the steering box angle and add a steering coupler. Now the steering coupler just needs to get here. I have a fuel tank and all the major parts. They said it ran when it was parked so I am optimistic. Now if only it didn’t have floorpan rust.
