I have a Aug 79 tr7 coupe in a salvage yard.
As much as i would like to bring this lost stray home,
clean title, bad starter, the repercussions I would rightly
recieve from my better half, well they would not be pretty.

So that said, besides the steering rack and windsheild,
what else should I grab?
Thanks tom

Sorry, I was looking for those on the same car. I remember a post here about those. I did not see them, this was an AC car, maybe it did not have them?
or maybe i'm just blind,
anymore specific info on what to look for? I did not see anything that looked like a pull knob on the outside edges of the footwell.

Actually it's a push, and not a pull

Sorry, this one is blurry, it is the fixed vent version

This is the sought after vent version

I will buy a LF UPPER door hinge if it is solid and doesn't make cracking noises.

Paul, is it welded or bolted on? I can't get to my car to look at the dr hinge.

They are bolted on as far as I know. I'm not near mine at this time either.

Upper hinges be welded... at least to the A pillar. Unfortunately they require quite a bit of involvement to replace. I need to do the same.
