I did find fore and aft side window trim. But something is missing at the top.
But that is a minor detail, compared to my preliminary shopping list:
Dash and cowl, or maybe a cab, from a pick up, carry all or ambulance.
2-6 doors, depending on plans to build a four door.
Rear springs, one 'main leaf' for the front, FFPW.
four 16" wheels, tubes and flaps. Got the michelins already.
coil springs for the seat frames
Gauges
Glass
Cab Rubber, probably about 600 ?
Steering wheel, manual box is good. Or 3-4 rolls of duct tape to restore the wheel to original proportions.
Horn button.
Shocks, a pair for rear anyhow... wait, those are optional, add them later.
Radiator.
Brake system,
Fuel system, though I do know where I can get a stainless steel gas tank. ;^)
A roof cut out of a suburban or van.
Paint, bondo,
Copious amounts of acetylene and oxygen. And tungstens for the tig.
Otherwise, it looks like a cake walk. ;^)
I had to totally disassemble the body on my green five window for the restoration, and then later extend the cab. This carryall ought to be about the same? Plus the work to the windows, and the springs and rear axle work. And build a tailgate. And some of this one is better than the green one was when I started- No rust in the front clip, one side running board is very nice, other side not too crumpled. Rear fenders have no rust holes.
