Brilliant result. You're lucky the owner collected parts too. I am the second owner of a Wimbledon White Fastback myself, and I have been using the same approach to preserving it. I've enjoyed driving it for 27 years now. I put over 200K miles on it and it's nearing 400K total. Next, it will get a new engine and a 5-speed manual so it can drive some more! Drive them to the ground, I say!

Great to hear about your Wimbledon White fastback. Love your approach to restoration, keeping it in service and using it a lot. My last three things on my list include addressing a PS leak, getting the AC working again and dealing with a carb issue. Once those are resolved, my whole list will be complete and it will be a lot easier to drive often without hesitation. Have a great summer.

@@Paul355c I got very tired of maintaining the steering, so I installed a rack and pinion system 15 years ago, along with a beefy sway bar and stiff springs. Keep up the good work and make nice videos. Next, I will work on paint chips. It was repainted once, in 1986, after a minor fender bender. It had chips I have been tending to all along the door spear, but it's time to do a better job, as you did. Thanks for the inspiration!

The jack in the spare wheel tool holder needs to be upright otherwise it will leak oil. The holder has an arrow on it indicating "this way up". A rubber ring secures the holder in the wheel well, wrapped around the screw handle and a brace across the holder - if you get my drift.

Hi! I don’t know for sure but in general, plastic is soft so your best bet would be a soft cloth like microfiber and a fluid that lubricated and less like a harsh detergent. I’ve had luck with using quick-detailing spray on plastic. That’s the quick detail spray that would normally be used on a paint finish to clean up between washes. Good luck!

Cool project! I really like your restoration approach on the GTA. I am doing a similar restoration on a '69 Cougar XR7. Keeping the patina and getting everything working like it came out of the factory with a few subtle mods. Similar to your story my first car was a '68 Cougar so it has been fun working on the '69. BTW if the radiator is the original the top tank will have a FoMoCo stamped on it.
