All true, except my '68 has carpet? The front end parts are all still available. My rear windows are out of a 240T so no more glued on latch. Alternator was already swapped out for a GM alternator, just weld up a bracket. She now has a B20 with a factory setup. 4-speed revs get old, now has an M410. Dash board has 2 nice big cracks & windshield leaks. Windshield's easy, swap over to a 240 style seal, for the dash I haven't come up with anything that I'm satisfied with. Nothing major to overcome, and the faults that are more involved can sure be lived with. Had an M40 for the fist 6 years I owned her, only swapped once the gears stripped out and I had a good line on an OD unit.
