Another 72 ST build

[Xavier PJB]

Front bumper on, H4 lights in, hold down straps in place, bonnet on mesh grilles in place not sure if I should put them on
or leave that area open as I think they did when cars left the factory

Thoughts anyone??

Hi,
From where did you get the 2 mesh grilles ?

Cheers
Xavier

Like the alloy dooor skins etc etc etc my awesome builder made them off an extensive picture file he has.

I think they look cool but are easily removed to create the factory look.

[BOYER73S]

Lol. I like it either way.


Scott really????

Another piece of the puzzle in place thanks to Jeff Denkins who has supplied a NOS set of MFI lines hope they work nicely in conjunction with these

One line has polished up very nicely removing years of grime so they will look factory new with a bit of aircraft alloy polish and a bit of patience

Some more pics of front and rear bars and lights now fitted

Dave made some cool rear bumper brackets out of alloy saved another kilo or 2 and when painted look identical
to factory normal

Dave also had some Bilstein stickers made for the rear shocks

more prgress carpet and cage going in and correct 7's now on front thanks to friends on this site

Looking great, Clyde. You are the first to use 7s on the front (as the factory ST was originally supplied) I think. How did you choose the direction for the diagonal? Period pics show them in both directions. Are you planning any black stripes for the bumpers or script on the side?

[BOYER73S]

Script on side and black line on bumper and I used 7's to match what we believe they were delivered with from the factory.

I'll check with Dave on the diagonal as we have never really discussed that to be honest

[BOYER73S]

Gib,

Dave agrees has seen the diagonal both ways his bar maker prefers them this way thinks it gives more protcetion to the driver

We added the drivers side original ST style recaros today along with the repa belts aquired from Dave (stretch). I can highly recommend his belts
they look fantastic. The carpeting is almost done then just a few bits outside and we are almost done...then comes the propulsion!!!
