man that window rubber is bad never seen them go that way before,any hub caps you can stick in the centres of the steelies might look good? even old avenger ones shined up.
i have a set of turbo cheviots on the rally car to not sure on them though!!!

JoKer

the caps I have dont fit the rears :/ to still half a look, will have a scrape around Wilf's some more

I have a heap of dressup rings too

i havnt put too much thought into that problem lately. That one light of mine decided to sporadically work for one day, the day after i put the new headlights in, and it has stayed on dim eversince. still none the wiser to be honest

Avengers really need a headlight relay to reduce the load on the switches...especially after 35 years...lol
I sell them here...

cant remember what goes in the spaces on either side, vents/switches?

Heater switch on the right and cigarette light on the left. They are on a little mounting plate.

I am looking for one for my Alpine dashboard.

fan switch is near key, last venger I had I installed "accessory" port just above it in blank spot

I remember now there was nothing there on my 78

Yeah, the fan switch is near the key in the Super. On the Alpine they moved it up to beside the radio and put a plastic blanking plate where it used to be. My 74 Alpine never had a stereo and still has the one piece plastic panel for the cigarette lighter/accessory port, stereo and fan switch. The panel only has a skinny cut out for the old style stereo cassette with 2 knobs. To fit a modern CD player the panel has to be cut up, so you're left with a square hole each side of the CD player for the ciggie lighter and fan switch. Easy to fashion a square piece of plastic or aluminum to hold them.

#41
9km per litre is pretty good for a twin carb auto Alpine, my super manual with a single carb Alpine motor does 11km per litre.

JoKer

was wondering if it was on par, anyone else got data?

subaru is a shoker : I swear it used to be around 12km/L once upn a time

even avenger averages 20c a KM
