[Lavanaut]

After a good amount of info from all sorts of people in response to this thread, I went back and skimmed what I could wrap my head around. Here's what I've come up with (slowly adding links to pics as I have time):

Items in green are the most-recently added. Items in red have been recently updated/changed due to new information.

Cowl-to-Fender Seam: absent (metal-filled) or empty for very early 70 (up to #49), rubber seam thereafter. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
