Off subject Mike (& Kenny), but I was going to PM you anyway about my early-73 2L's doors.
Yesterday I took off inner seals to check for rust - both holed along the bottom! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/barf.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) ... at least the friggin Longs were still good! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) However, I peeked behind the inner panes (still on until I can pull the windows later after stripping the interior ofr strip/blast & repaint/repair) - & they're apparently a "new"3rd door type: "Light Late" & it's still OE from the 8/72 build date - late window regulator/etc. & late inner frame - but with no late side-impact bar welded in there!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I know exactly what & where to look for them in there, cuz the 74 shell has them as expected, but only it's pass is clean no rust for a transplant, & the driver door has some rust but may need to fid a clean late L door. So I guess my early 73 2L with "Light Late Doors" will gain the 110 pounds (each or total I don't recall) with a door transplant, cuz I'll never find a clean set of these oddball Late Lights anywhere! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Another oddity for your First 1000 series, at which I'll post pix when the interior panels come off later. BTW mine is VIN ...01954 on there.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) yes those are the best of both worlds, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) i've heard mention of them but they must be very limited. i think it's 110 lbs for the set. thats a considerable amount of weight. can you save your originals? mines real early - #00157 it's got early style windows w/no saftey brace/boat anchors (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) mike |
