[QUOTE="Plastic Fury, post: 442156, member: 21352"] The interior needed some freshening up as the door panels were bleached quite a bit from the sun. The new rebuilt manual tilt column was black that I pulled from the yard and the center dash bezel was damaged. The center gauge panel was also damaged and none of them worked. I ordered a used replacement from Ebay that was in great condition and thankfully, in good working order. I should have taken more detailed photos of the overall condition when I purchased it but I wasn't really thinking about it at that time.

I hadn't intended to use it originally but then decided I'd like to reinstall it. It was easy to disassemble and clean up/paint with SEM Camel.
