I just have to plug them in, and toss the battery in. Everything is run through but not clipped in. Mabe tomorrow

I've been looking at the door with the blacked out trim. And I'm thinking, mabe not putting the chrome on around the windows.

IMHO, I'd suggest chroming around the windows... but it really depends on your paint scheme. I say this because... if you're chroming, say, the mirrors, and a few other spots, I think t'would complement the car.

Cougar A & B are chromed around the windows, their mirrors, the door handles, etc., but X is not. I just couldn't picture X with chrome around the windows.

But hey, just a thought.

Just out of curiosity, what colour/paint scheme are you planning on for your finished project?

Either black or this color. it's almost black. Can't remember what it's called at the moment. It's a charcoal color

Once again, great work! And I would vote for the charcoal (I **think** it is called "Dark Shadow Gray Metallic").

I don't know why, but I keep forgetting that this car needs repair on both sides for some reason.

Believe you are righ on the name. If I could come up with a two tone I liked I that would be the other color along with black.

You don't need to remember anymore, this is the other side.
And it will be together in a couple weekends.

Got the windows up. everything seems to work fine. and if not, I have 2 extra sets of door parts now.
The tint on these windows are unbelievable. Like new glass also.
the buckle up stickers on the glass look brand new.

Kitz, How long were these stored away, again?

Now that I have my doors on, I'll finish up the frame during the week. (I hope)

I think I'm going to leave the chrome just around the windows, and black out everything else. And leave the chrome on the body moulding and paint the mirrors with the car.
Then I'll have enough chrome to go with my wheel covers.
Oh yea, you heard me right. wheel covers and whitewalls

Look how yellow my headlights got

It's not a good shot. I was trying to keep my reflection out of the shot.

Was the sticker on your windows worn off? Mine look nice like the one in the pic.
