of course it needs some bamboo (torched a little) and matting with a coat of poly for shine and protection

the dashboard with some original patina "Westcoaster" is the brand probably early 70's I think

It needs a cup holder!

It’s a long drive from San Diego to the Elks Scotty.
That is one cool vehicle.
