As ever with a Matra project things have escalated. I found that the adhesive seal under the front screen was debonding more than I thought and so now I have removed the front screen to completely refurbish the frame and then I will stick the screen back in. I also decided that the only way to clean and repaint the door reveals was to remove the doors; I have done this and have found some spare wires in the door by the electric window motor connectors, does anyone have any idea what they are?
The rubber cable ducts the go from the A post to the doors are really perished, I assume that they are no longer available, so has anyone tried alternatives?
Regards
John
Matra projects always escalate.
I am wondering if it had been better to completely strip the car down to the galvanized chassis and rebuild it piece by piece, replacing worn out parts.
I may still go there.
The extra wires in the door are probably the wires for the electricl lock system that some models were equipped with. Mine has them too. My friend Jan has a Murena with the electric locks. I am not sure he is completely happy with them, because there is a situation in which they automatically lock and if the key is in the ignition... you are locked out, probably with the engine running.
