The first work on Junior started on August 12, 2001, 5 days after he arrived at his new home. I began by removing the trunk lid, and the interior seats, and photographing each assembly as I took it apart. It's so much easier to put those pieces back together if you create a visual guide as you go! Well, that's my hope anyway. Here's the pictures I took on day one of the restoration. |

Inside the trunk, some areas are rusted out, other areas are in good condition |
the trunk lid itself is in pretty good shape... |
trunk latch, exploded view... |
