Finally figured out that to fix/lube/replace the right door latch the
window regulator and such also need to be removed.

I'm in the since-I'm-already-there mode, so window scrapers are the logical
item to install with the door disassembled.

All of the rubber everywhere on my squareback is baked, cracked, chipped,
flaking, and barely there in some places.

So, what vendor has decent or good rubber bits for window scrapers, door
seals, window seals, hatch seals, etc?

I have all the hardware, except for the front windshield aluminum trim
piece which got caught in the car cover and partially pulled out and bent,
just need to soft bits.

Getting close to the since-I'm-there thoughts since all the rubber needs to
be removed . . . paint and body work time?

This weekend I removed all of the interior panels to trace and cut new
backing boards. The original vinyl is cleaning nicely. All of the backing
boards are warped, broken, or moldy. I found exactly one that I can reuse.

The seats have been removed as well. I installed a set of '69 brown
highback seats a long time ago and I may fix them too.

Who makes good seat covers and padding now?

What color is the seat base of a off/white interior front seat?

Are the ISP seat guides good? Mine are all broken.
