Well, once again I have a little spare cash (rare in this economy) and am looking to replace missing/worn out parts in my 1968 130 Daily Driver.
My triangular vent windows seals are in bad shape, and I'm leaning towards getting new vent seals before the nasty winter weather sets in. I also need new windlace for this car. There's none on the driver's side and the passenger side had lost it's covering and looks like a yak.
The economy being what it is (and my discretionary fund being shrunken by fuel costs), I'm trying to limit my purchases to things that will make a noticeable difference in my ride comfort and fuel economy.
The whistling noises from those waster vent seals is pretty annoying. I expect it will be much worse when the 30F and below temps set in...
I've *never* had an amazon with intact windlace. How much of a difference do you see with proper windlace in place? Is it enough to justify the extra $75.00? Normally, I'd just make some new windlace myself, but I have neither the time nor the sewing skills for that right now.
I could use that dough to buy the missing rear door window seals for my Amazon Wagon instead, but since the 130 is my daily driver, maybe I should just focus on that... Too many projects, not enough time and money for all...
