Hey Al, I grew up by Duluth. Is your car pretty rusty? Minnesota cars were notorious for rusting through in a couple years because of all the corrosive stuff the highway department threw on the roads in winter. Edited by 67 Marlin - Jan/30/2020 at 8:40pm |

Had to take the door panels that SMS revamped out of the box to see. They look cool! Edited by 67 Marlin - Aug/15/2021 at 9:18pm |

Those are some nice looking door panels. Did they come with the car when you bought it?

My car was originally a Texas car until 2000, it was then purchased and moved to Esko, Mn. and was stored in a pole building for the next 13 yrs before I bought it in Nov. 2013, the previous owner collected numerous NOS parts he sold with the car, since it spent most of it's life in Texas it is a rust free car, I am in the process of doing a nut and bolt restoration with hopes of bring it out later this summer. The pics of your car look good, love the new door panels, defineately a good start. Al

Yes, the PO had SMS do the door panels. The vinyl and fabric also came with the car (also from SMS).

Found 1970s 15x7 AMC Rally wheels; the 14s will go in boxes for safekeeping. The center caps are decent, but once the wheels are blasted and powder coated they'll demand much nicer ones. Edited by 67 Marlin - Jul/25/2021 at 3:02pm |

When I was 16 it was time for me to get a car. My brother made that possible since he wrecked my dads company cars several times and he was the good son. Of coarse this was 1977 and my friends, well Jay had a 68 327 Camaro. Jeff a 65 289 Fastback Mustang. Hal a 302 Vega (Chevy 302) usual drove his moms 65 Wildcat convertable I think 340 powered. anyways my turn, Dad checked the papers. (no ebay or craigslist back then, and we survived) found a 70 Javelin. What's a Javelin I said. Remember my old Marlin, well the Javelin is made by the same company, Kill me know. Now all most 40 years later and I would love to own a Marlin, Ended up buying the Javelin and had a blast in that car tearing up Dayton Ohio's streets. Good luck with your project. I do by the way have a 70 Rebel console with arm rest, I think the only difference is mine has the pistol grip shifter knob and yours has the flying saucer looking knob
