Refrurbishing the old 76

[occruiser]

I've made some progress with the refresh... So far, I'm pretty happy with how its turning out. The plan is to drive it around like this for a few years and then give it a proper restoration. Im working out the bugs currently, Its been a great learning experience.

I installed all the glass this weekend... what a pain. pretty happy with how it turned out though.

Im really happy with the interior. I'll be installing some 3.73 gears this upcoming weekend. Once that's done, the next thing on the list will be a floor mat. Was hoping to find an OEM mat, but I think I'll have to settle for the cruiser corps mat.

I have my door panels ready to go. I just have to buy the plastic to set the lining to prevent moisture.

My driver side window regulator has a little bit of play. I'm considering swapping it out. What do you guys recommend to lubricate them? What are the points for lubrication...

Looks nice. Doing a full frame off on a 76 myself.

Is this dune beige?

No, it's actually mustard yellow.
