Just want to mostly drive it this year...oh yeah, did I mention those Datsun Snowflake wheels?

"Repairs" were made at some time...sheet metal riveted, screwed and caulked down over the inner sill. It's looking like the inner membrane is nonexistent, along with a good deal of the castle rail. The outer sill was covered with a patch panel or something--appears to be steel and somewhat solid from the outside, but that just hid...

Pulled the pedal box assembly out this afternoon. And vacuumed the leaves out of the inner fender. Not sure what had been stuffing those in there or how long ago. No live varmints found yet...unless they escaped last night and took up residence in the attic or something.
