Right now (I'am waiting on a battery) I have a little storage and I poke around and find the things that I need. If you are going for the 1 st class resto buy new what you can afford and what you can find. For just the clean up (my project) I am hitting the "ugliest and dirtiest" first. Being a daily driver I assume all the mechanicals are in good shape. My door panels are okay, but they could be better. So, I have a better pair stashed away. Being without a garage here in the winter I am going to let the dings go, although on the first warm winter day a little sanding and priming is in order. I am giving the inside a really good cleaning, straightening out the wiring under the dash and stuff. I am looking for obscure parts now, for example now I need the relay rods for my dual carb setup. One broke and I was not very happy to find out that the threads were cw on one end and ccw on the other.. Anybody got any spares? just my 0.02, regards, Theo Bryant 70 Fasty (unchristened)
