1973 302 Convertible, just like Dad's
Hi everyone,
I just purchased a 73 convertible with the 302. I grew up in one so they have a special place in my heart.
It runs well.
No leaks to speak of.
Body panels are in OK shape, no major rust/filler.
Interior needs a complete replacement (would like to change it from ginger to black)
Front bumper mounts (horns?) are rusty as is the cross member that they bolt to - PLEASE anyone know where to source these?
I'll be tinkering and upgrading for years (decades?) I'm sure.
Thanks everyone!

Thanks! I'm picking it up tomorrow morning. Got it insured through Haggerty.
I'd like to stay with Canadian suppliers whenever possible, as shipping and duties (and brokerage fees ugh) are horrible based on past experience.
I'll post more pictures tomorrow and as things progress. Interior and front bumper framework first...
