Hey Folks!
Nice to meet everyone. Just joined here
I recently bought a silver '73 3.0CS (pics to follow - I pick it up next week) and there are a few fixes and tasteful upgrades I know I would like to do.
I was hoping could get direction on sourcing a few parts:
-Rubber gasketing for the rear passenger windows? These windows were going down very slowly and I realized it was because the window rubber was getting pulled down into the door. These are looking pretty rough. Right where B pillar should be.
-Replacement roundels on C pillar? These got a little worn. I would keep originals but for my use I would want to replace them.
-Quality trunk liner?
-I searched the forums and, while I found mentions of this car, did not see anyone talk about what kind of air dam / front spoiler this guy specifically put on his car. The H&R guy in germany, black rig, featured on stanceworks. I am attaching photo. I would like to take the 5mph bumper off the car and put on a front end like this. Anyone know where this came from?
-If I wanted to upgrade the steering wheel to a wood one (like a Nardi from same era) is there a specific requirement for mounting pattern?
-The piece of dash trim under the steering wheel is not in great shape. Is there anyone producing aftermarket or has a repository of second hand ones? I have a dark blue interior.
-Additionally - going back to the H&R photo - does anyone have experience with 17" BBS rims on this car and the proper tires to use for a good ride? Also would the coilover job help out?
Thanks for everyones help. Super psyched about this car!
