    Yes, the paint tag doesn't appear to be riveted to the door jamb. Well spotted.

    I believe the '70 paint tag was a one year only sticker instead of a riveted plate.

    What a great find! Love the color. Gerritt at NML can send you a cover for your Scheel. It is not too difficult to install. That is a very rare Scheel slider it is mounted too. The side lever was so that a driver who was harnessed in, could still adjust his seat.

    Whats your plans for the car?

    Yup, nothing funky in there except for a little dirt. Everything looks good; hinge pins unpainted, hinge bolts painted, correct paint tag and door strap pin... beautiful looking door jamb!
