Wow! Thanks for all the positive input. Better than I imagined. I’ve decided to have the original (still fully functioning) D-jet fuel injection reinstalled for authentication. Agree about ditching the rack…messes with the lines and is useless nowadays. Since first posting, I reinstalled the original ‘73 Blaupunkt AM/FM radio and got the original VDO clock working again (thanks Pelican Parts!). Also, installed proper 165/80 R15 Vredestein tires.
I need guidance regarding the VDO gauge wiring for the brake parking/warning lighting. 1973’s can be a bit hard to figure…I have an extra brown (ground) for some reason. And today, I’ve scheduled an “over the winter” indoor stay at a great local mechanic for very detailed physical.
