problems:
needs a new window switch.. driver window goes down but not up
need new hood support
torn passenger seat

nice project car............I think you'll need a new window regulator and not a switch. You said the window goes down but not up......sounds like a regulator problem to me. Mine did the same and I managed to fix it with the regulator. Good luck with the car.
