1966 404 Coupé Injection Restoration

2 minute(s) of a 255 minute read

Second time doing the driver's door panel.  The window winder was not happy staying in place and that was down to the padding under the vinyl being too thick next to the embellisher.  I also had to remount the lower part of the vinyl in order to slightly recontour the lower edge to better fit. And finally, the screws under the armrest were mounted.

I got new lifters and timing chain tensioner from Alveas in France, and two sets of NGK BP7ES from Rock Auto.

Zsolt Parragh in Hungary kindly sent me this tiny commutator for the AEG-KF fuel lift pump of the 404C - for free!  Zsolt also has a 404C and his needed a new commutator, so he had a small batch made up.  Very generous of him.

Couple of dark blue US-made seat belts for the front of the 404C.  The car only came with two belts and soon it will have them again.
