Ive got the mechanical side sorted but what manual is best showing window regulators, grill assembly and other body related stuff. Its a 1970 if that makes a difference.

The factory service manual is worth its weight in gold. You can find an occasional original on Ebay. Those are the best. There are PDF versions available on CD ROM that are pretty good. I find the pictures do not print as well as the original factory manual did. I have an original factory manual for a 1971 Cuda that I use a lot because the pictures and diagrams are clearer but check with my CD ROM version that is specifically for the 73 to make sure there were no changes between the model years.

There are a fair number of used repop '71 FSM's available from specialists like Bishko's Books. An original is hard to find. I have one of each and find the authorized repop manuals are very usable and a good bith cheaper! Astrobuf So, are you really a Rocket Scientist?
