Yep, that's the one! It's not the latest one, it's the 68-72 version, with the 
chrome trim that was dropped for 73 (and maybe also for part of 72.)

Yes, aftermarket; some straight, some right angle. Did you like the plug wires 
with the insulation completely cut/broken thru in places? Still worked just 
fine, since there was nothing nearby to spark to.

The windshield I don't think we can be sure of, one way or another. Lots of 
possibilities, including Type 3. I just walked outside to take a better look at 
my Type 3 windshield, and more and more it looks like the one on the kit car. 
Maybe Hal was right.

There may be other things, too.

This car is a really good example of how badly a kit car can be built up. I 
really like Mustie1's videos, because he does a good job of showing how to 
figure out and fix problems, including other people's screwups.

Everyone out there keeping your distance and staying healthy? COVID-19 
may not be in your neighborhood yet, but it's coming soon. Be prepared. 
This is not just someone else's problem.
