Made some progress this weekend on various items. Installed the following:

• new OEM driver side and passenger side window regulators.,
• new OEM rear mudguards,
• new OEM DS and PS interior window weatherstrips onto refurbished custom door panels,
• new plastic sheeting over the door interior beneath the panels
• refurbished custom front door panels
• new front window regulator handles
• refurbished sun visors with vinyl covering. Deleted mirror and a very close match to vinyl SOR headliner
• Nice used D pillar trim tabs compliments of @MANUCHAO
  

The dark gray sections are vinyl matching the seat upholstery back and side trims. The light gray is leather matching the seat sitting areas with the intent of the pleats to match the seats. The bottom section is a plush carpet matching the carpet floor. Behind the work is a 1/8 foam. Speaker spacers on order for door speaker install.

The old ones were funtional but it just wouldn't be right to put a 30 year old handle on such a nice new to me door panel.

These were completely broken down and refurbished with foam and covering. One of the mounting tabs is slightly cracked so I will need to source an intact piece.

Sun damage eats plastic.

R&R was easier than expected. Added a little extra grease and its like slicing through butter now.

Shame...I've had these weatherstrips since 2013 waiting for the install. Years in the making but worth the wait. This may be the longest project on the 60s forum.

Smitty center console with interior power outlets and led lighting to find that elusive something in the dead of night. Armrest will be reupholstered with light gray leather to match seats and door panels.
