<VV> 66 Monza Convertible Project, Part Deux

[shortle]

Using the engine oil dipstick, stick it into the vent window to unlock it, then put your arm into the car and open the interior handle. Or get someone with a skinnier arm to do that. I used to be able to get into my '66 Coupe in about 15 seconds which included checking the engine oil level.
