Today I took it to a show and there was a very helpful guy who is a NCRS member and knows a lot about C3s. He looked at my car and gave me a partial rundown on what is original:
The alternator, smog pump, A/C compressor (even the little caps on the compressor), exhaust tips, almost everything under the hood.
Other wise I have confirmed the following are also original: engine, transmission, carb, radiator, and much more.
What is not original: brake booster and master cylinder, vacuum canisters, (and some of the hoses and belts), battery, tires.
So I am not far off.
The ignition shield was missing, but I have sourced one from a 72 L48 auto. I have not checked the dats on it yet. It needs to be prior to Jan 1972 as that is the build date for my car.
