09/01/2006 - VW TRUNK/HOOD

I was surprised to find the original jack in the car, and in pretty decent shape! Here's a photo of the trunk after I removed the hood.

09/01/2006 - THE REBUILD PROJECT OFFICIALLY BEGINS

Didn't know whether to file this under "Interior" or "Bodywork" but since I'm starting to tear down the interior, I put it here. The front passenger seat came out easily (though for a 1971 it does have that seat spring clip to watch out for, typical of 1972 models), but the passenger seat is frozen - the seat adjuster is rusted into position. I'm treating it overnight with some good metal penetrator fluid.
