The only thing I did not do was grind the camshaft. So with that said, it came down to two things for me:
1) Installing the side glass in the window channel (wing windows). That was a giant PITA
2) Installing the wind lace around the door openings. Another giant PITA.
How about you guys ? what was your biggest challenge?
