Hello, I am a new member and also a new owner in connecticut. I just purchased a 78 GT2 and finding this site is the greatest thing next to finding my Bradley. I have read many of the threads and found so much knowledgable information as well as links to so many of your patrons build sites. I look forward to posting my build for you all to give your thoughts on and ideas on. To get my build started i am in need of a few parts. I am looking to find original replacements. If anyone who reads this has any spare parts for sale? I am in need of door locks, latches, door panels for gullwings, replacement glass for one door, front hood mounted side mirrors, front bumber and dashboard. Any other parts you may have i would love to know about. I am interested in anything that you think may help my build. Thanks Guy W.

Welcome GUY W.
I can help you with the doors latchs . You can find them cheap at the salvage yard, look for 1975 -78 rabbit and cheracco they have the identical hardware.
All the struts for the door and rear window can be purchased from ebay. $ 35 per set new.
enjoy the car
