Looks nice.
Did you have to convert to longer M.Y. '72 Window Regulators and Door Latch Controls?
And is that yellow strip on the threshhold zinc chromate primer?
Yes, you have to use 72 internals as they are just a little longer than previous years to clear the thicker door panel. The yellow stuff is tape to protect the paint during assembly
