Hood unlock cable restored. We were thinking of a back up release. But why should you make that if you place a new cable, if that starts falling apart, you replace it, I think it will hold the next 40 years...
We used a cable from a 300ZX and some other parts from the release cable, see pictures







handle steering column

the spiral is broken, and the other side is completely missing. Does anyone knows where the spiral should be attached?
It is not that important, the locks where working...



Be aware there is a difference in these rubbers (I did not know), I needed the ones without the clip. The rubbers come in a 90 degree bend metal which is placed in the bottom of the door, the rubbers are used as a "bump"stop at the end when the window goes down in the door.
The one with the cip is for a "high" windshield model.



cleaning again on the bottom outside...pffffff

Now that is handy, two trunk lids. No need to decide whether or not you want a luggage rack!
Sweet.

The spiral should go over the top of the wheel. The wheel should have a guide to keep the spiral on the wheel.

THANKS!!!

That looks great Erica, are you busy to save weight on your car too?
I see so many drilled holes.
