Re: advise for parts and lowering
I have good used windlace trim in black for around the doors, original bonnet badge, and also used trim for around the windscreen (this is always fragile and used is usually a bit twisted). Try and buy genuine whenever you can. Bits I have are all cheap or happy to trade for something I need. Or you...

Re: Fender/wing beading
Cheers Peter thanks for the heads up :thumbsup: Got to take rear wings off again to wax oil and then seal the fender beading with some Anchor wax. I have the foam seal strip to fit as well. Managed to sort out the lower valence beading (velvet green) so when they turn up I will get on with sorting.

Re: how many seats in t3?
I have always thought of it as a 5 seater car too David.

Mine has some damage to the wire, but it is part no. 1 237 330 191 managed to find some from CIP1 in USA. listed as auto up to 71.
