Hi, I'm not actually the restorer, but my boyfriend is. He has a wicked fathom green 68 with a 327. He's rebuilding the motor, so I figured this would be a great time to help him with some small things he's probably not going to buy for himself for a while (he's working full time to finish school and maintain two beautiful cars). I find myself buying things for him all the time that have to do with cars, rather than buying him actual parts for his car, because obviously, I don't know enough about finding the right parts.
Since he's more concerned with the motor, I would appreciate some help with where to look for authentic interior parts to replace the ones that have gotten some wear over the past couple years. I started looking for the right window cranks for him (his came from a kit and I broke the nob off the passenger one...just by using it) but saw so many that looked cheap.
I want quality parts, original if possible. I love that the motor is the most important investment, but since I benefit from her too, I'd really like to spoil her, and him, especially if it means he'll bring it to shows.
Please help me, where can I find either good quality reproductions, or original parts. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!
