Thank you for your answers to some of my mysteries. Here were my challenges posted on another thread:
- Foam rubber seat paddings
- Left front turn indicator lense
- Black fresh air vent hose 32" long
- 2 short black hoses between plenum and air filter
- Ignition switch
- Interior rear view mirror
- Hub caps
I had worked a little with Re-Originals before - I have had many things on back-order for years. I did get a headlight ring and other items from them.
OKR is a wonderful find (thank you, thank you). I found turn signal lens and hub caps - I will have to save up for four hubcaps.
My upholsterer said he could fabricate the seat buns, but he preferred I buy them. Now I know it is impossible to buy...
My interior rear view mirror is not just dirty, the metal that provides the reflection (behind the glass) is destroyed. I will attempt to separate the layers and have the backing replated - Re-Originals has the mirror, but it would be on back-order ($310 dollars+).
You say black hoses without the accordian centers, any ideas on where to find those?
You say your 2600 is in pieces, what is the story? Is it a project or futue work or...? Where in the world are you?
I brought mine out into the public for the first time last weekend in Irvine at the Saturday morning gathering at Ford/Mazda Design Center. It sat in a garage for 20 years (1979-1999) and the last nine in restoration and it still isn't done. It looks pretty good with the above items needed to finish it - and oh yes, the upholstery gets done later this month. When I figure out how to add pictures, I will share. In the mean time, think S1M0NE.
