Got some new goodies today:



New doors, 4 new side curtains, and a removable hardtop.

A guy who lives around the corner from me stopped by today. Introduced himself, said he had a 74 he'd sold and I could have all the parts he had left over, for $1. I drove right over and got all of them.

Great deal!

Jackpot.

Funny thing is, I've been looking for doors. The ones on the car were in very poor shape. The side curtains and top were just a bonus. The doors are even close to the same color the car is. He lived less then a mile from me. I was willing to drive a few hundred miles for the right doors. These are in great shape.

Cookies are a great idea.



Those are way better then the ones that came with the car. Plexiglass too.

Sure did. I took the keyed ones off her old doors, and swapped them. Now they are in the right place and she can lock them.
