Road test!
No more squeaking speedo, blower motor works good, radio sounds great. Time to take a break and move onto another project for awhile.

Many thanks to Kevin and James who helped me out with a few parts and information.
In the interior I still have to swap out the steering wheel and the car does need a little tuning work. The electronic distributor in the car has the wrong advance curve I think and the carb needs a touch of adjustment.
Still have to get the right air cleaner which I have not had time to pursue.
At least its turn-key now and everything is working as it should.
List of stuff that has been fixed-
Bad engine skip (1 plug, 1 wire, 1 valve)
Repainted engine correct color
Replaced power steering seal
New battery
New belts
New plug wires
New valve springs
Correct alternator spacers
Correct fuel line and replaced all rubber fuel hose
Replaced a few bulbs
NOS dash pad painted and installed
Replaced horn buttons
Re-skinned front seats
Front speaker sent out to be refurbished
Replaced missing parking brake handle
Lubed speedo cable and speedo head
Lubed blower motor (noisy)
Polished gauge lens
Adjusted shifter and took bow out of console plate
Repaired armrest on door
Repaired headliner

A friend wanted pictures of a few of the decals on the car for reference, here they are.
Mind you this is an LA built '71, might be in different locations on other plant vehicles.

Engine bay- Please note that there are a few things missing (ECS) and the car was converted to electronic sometime in its life. Use pictures with this in mind, clearly you can tell what is stock and what was tinkered with.
