Hi friends I have just finished polishing all the chrome on my Series 3 hardtop. I have all the pieces and they are in almost perfect condition. I’d like to know what the original screws look like for the chrome over the windows. There are 2 countersinked screws in the ends. Hole approx 4.25 mm and ...

Thanks out there for all suggestions.

I will try 6/32" UNC

Best regards

The problem is not the screw itself, but the threads in the housing. I need to refresh one of them and I don’t think they are UNF.

Anyone know what thread used on the small screws part number C33952-F?

The paint code section solved my problem. Many thanks ”mgcjag”

Black is black, but the paintshop wants a colourcode for my hardtop. I’ve tried to find the code without any luck. Anybody out there who knows?

Thanks for comments. We will choose black bodycolour frpm 1973.

Hi, we are restoring two black hardtops with headlining from Aldridge. Cannot find any more description than Black. Do you think black/glossy will be enough to give to the paintshop?

Best regards

Thanks for your comments. I will do the job myself and I’ve written to Aldridge for samples.

Hi friends

I am restoring a hardtop for my series 3 and need new headliner. I’ve been recomended Aldridge Trimming. Anyone having experience of their headliner for my car?

The colour is Turquoise and only 137 cars had this paint Nov 1972 - Mar 1974. I also have the original hardtop in black which hopefully will be restored this winter.
