69 Z-28 survivor

[adam]

To remain 100% honest, and give the absolute best, accurate description of the car that I can up front, I learned this past weekend that the drivers side rear quarter panel on the car has been replaced at some point. I learned this after shoving a digital camera up inside the quarter from inside the trunk and snapping a few pictures. I could see the original quarter coming off the pillar, and where it was cut. The new quarter was overlaid and welded in place. The passengers side looks NOTHING like this, and as far as I can tell, it is the original quarter. Pics below.

I also learned that the spare tire is an XT coded wheel with K-1-9 stamped into it. The wheels on the car are not stamped with XT, or anything special. They are just a rallye wheel from who knows what.

Also, at the request of several individuals wondering what the floorpans looked like, I pulled the interior from the car, and removed the carpet to take a couple pictures.

The insulation / sound deadening (?) material on the floors, and under the seats looks older than the hills, and I would appreciate it if somebody could tell me if it appears to be what the original stuff was. It is almost a wool/burlap/ kind of material under the seats and on the floorpans, with a rubbery kind of sheet draped over the "hump" in the floor under the rear seat.

As I said, I have disclosed this new discovery to several folks on the phone and emailed them pics, so to keep all parties equally informed, as well as those browsing, here are the pics.

I hope everybody here had a very Merry Christmas.
