Todays task. Little things.
Installed JWEST headlight relay kit. Car has h4 and had high wattage bulbs.
feel better now I’m not routing 20a through the switch
At least my headlight switch is new from previous owner
i May put Normal bulbs in i just don’t feel like pulling lights again such a pain to get that damn screw in right and so easy to strip it
im also pulling each lens and cleaning them, treating the seals
later will tackle brake bleed and pad swap
car has blue ate 200 in it. Which means fluid is probably 3-4 yrs old since they stopped selling it. That stuff stains reservoirs.... at least easy to see when bleed is done.
Yesterday I received a picture book + about 500 pictures of the restoration process from Partsklassik (http://www.partsklassik.com). I can't say enough how cool Kurt was. Answered a ton of questions about the work on the car and sent me the pictures and book on his dime.
I'll post some up later. It documents the cars survivor condition in 2012 and the restoration process.
Basket Weave Door Panel Set (1969-1971) SMC.293.SET$ 168
Was $371.70
Id be all over that if I had all the other parts!!! Or if it was a full panel. I'm going to locate some Waffle material and just recover what I have. Will call the guys at autobahn and my 'super secret but very backed up' interior guy in OC. :-)

I may even be interested if it were a full panel - I am still trying to decide what I will be doing. I actually like the waffle style of the pre-72 better than the smooth. Trying to keep what I do simple, but keeping weight in mind.
Like the seats you ordered ! I thought about those but ended up going a bit more sporty with Stefan's seats, partly because I could sit in some locally before I ordered, and Stefan is just down the road from me in Austin.
The tire and wheel combo is a fun decision. I broke down and bought some date correct Deep Sixes from Harvey and they are in line for refinishing. My car is a 70T.
