Stop in for a cup of coffee

Take pictures of it now from every angle outside, inside, and engine compartment.... that way you will always have a baseline reference...
Best advice ever! I have taken pics of my car that way and it really helps whenever doing work or buying parts. It is especially important to do it when you have things apart. When I pulled a door panel off, pics. When I pulled a brake drum off, pics. When the car was on a lift, I scoured every thing underneathh taking pics. And on and on and on...
