Slowly, the car is going back together ... I went back to my donor car earlier this week and grabbed the radio speaker trim panel. It was cherry compared to mine :)

BTW: Are the mirrors original? Are they worth pulling?

Here's some updates of the progress: The rear skirt is still awaiting a makeover.

I think those mirrors are a factory option the 78-79 cvcc only, the 77 cvcc( the onle I have) has the factory optional ones but they are a bit different from yours, so im guessing either the factory optional mirrors changed on 78 or they are aftermarket.

ps. The car is looking amazing.Are you rebuilding the engine also?
