Yep, will be doing an article for an upcoming DV.. still putting together details and sorting pics. Definitely better than new.. it has been metal prep'd, coated and seam sealed far better that it ever was @ the factory.

Yep, lots of NOS on that car including the 1/4's and the Targa bar frame reinforcements as you suggested. Some of those items gave me/were a real headache in locating..
We presented Pete with a good size box of crusty metal that we had cut out of the car during the process.
My favorite was the trans linkage cover from the rear of the tunnel inside the car. It still had carpet on it but made a nice crunching sound when flexed!
Fun stuff...
