Yesterday was "back seat removal day"...time to figure out the back window issue. The seat's "push hard and pull up" design leaves a lot to be desired, but it finally came out. I was met with a lot of red primer covering virtually every square inch of surface...Charlotte's husband Lyle's attempt at banishing future rust, no doubt. The photos pretty much speak for themselves. Note the worn but original look of everything. The seat belt tags are all dated around the late Apr - early May '69 timeframe (body build date "05E"). Note also that the beautiful trunk board looks ABSOLUTELY NOTHING like the repop garbage versions sold now as "correct" (go figure!). The rear window shelf also appears to be NOTHING like its repop version, and it also appears to have been painted with actual Frost Green body paint. The underside of it looks like it had a layer of foam sound deadener affixed that has now come completely off (vestiges of it are still visible). The seat cushions look to be extremely complex with numerous hog rings holding everything together. Note the loose gray formed sound deadening pad lying loosely inside the bottom cushion (see close-up pic). The date on the left rear panel is "4-18-69", manufactured by Seaman Industries (still listed on the Internet as a manufacturer of auto parts in Roseville, MI). The right panel has only a very tiny stamp with the part number and a date code. The carpet has faded quite a bit...it was originally a nearly perfect shade of light green, but has now faded to a medium olive (a dirty medium olive, I might add). Both back windows need some serious lubrication and cleaning, which they will receive. I found a couple of matchbooks for 1st Federal savings of Lincoln Nebraska and the University of Nebraska Student Union, plus a ball-point pen for the Kut N' Kurl Hair Salon in Portsmouth, Nebraska.
