Thanks. I still have the interior to do. I had trouble getting the felt in the window channel. It would pinch closed up at the top. Plus I couldn't find the 6th notch to put the clamp in down in the door. Geesh where did I put all that stuff for the door. SHOULD have bagged and tagged like Kim is. Gip

How did you do the roof? Is it a sun or moon roof or is it a cloth roof? Are you about to post a close up of it?

Thanks. Johnw996

Looks great!

I just finished my complete chassis restoration on my 75 super. Doing all the body / paint in the spring and working on interior refinements over the winter. :D

I have taken some pictures of the sunroof but like usual I can't get them to go to the gallery. I reckon I will go through the procedure again tomorrow.
PS. She heads to the Upholsterer tomorrow for a custon interior.
PSS Naturally the running boards don't line up with the holes in the fender. Looks like will be drilling some new holes.
PSS I even took some pictures of the wiring mess in the backseat area so someone can tell me what I can eliminate since it is no longer a Fuel Injected set up. Gipper

I have a '78 Fuel Injected convertible.
I chose to keep the FI, or I should say the state of California issists that I keep the FI.
But I have removed the computer & harnessing out of parts cars.
THe FI harness is self contained, so just unplug it from the computer,
and push the plug & grommit through the firewall ito the engine compartment.
Un-bolt the computer from the strap and cover the connector.
You may want to keep the comuter & harness,
or sell the parts on ebay.
I'm sorry I don't remember much more about the double relay than unpluging it,
and putting it in my pocket.
