I'm in the process of resurrecting a 356 speedster that transformed into a cabriolet and looking for a source for door handles, roll up window cranks and some instructions on installing roll up windows. Any help with this would be great.

I would love to talk with someone who has a similar setup as the spec below.

The specs for the car are as follows:
Speedster Information

Kit make Classic Motor Carriages
Model Speedster -- later changed to Convertible D/Cabriolet, taller windshield, a new top and rollup windows were added at a later time. (need side glass to replace cracked glass)
Color White
Interior Black vinyl, black carpet
Chassis Metalcraft 356 speedster chassis (I need more information on the specs the information I have is a faded fax that is 15 years old)
Engine 2 Litre 123hp -- VW engine reworked (need to get all the details) Mini Performance 419 476 3300 ?
Transmission For speed a rhino case rear mount IRS
Brakes 11 inch disc front and rear (Tol-o-Matic part # 07201024)
Emergency brake This has never worked well
Wheels Chrome 15 x 6 (pitted and may be replaced)
Tires P195 SR60/15
Options Moon hubcaps, leather steering wheel, AM, FM and cassette removable radio, -- grab handle, inside and outside mirrors, heater and defroster, Porsche style gauges by VDO, bumper guards and tonneau cover that needs snaps
Assembled by Custom Roadsters in 1990
