Welcome to the site and congrats. Recommendations are based on the outside air temps the engine will operate in. For most parts of the world that have 4 seasons 10/30 or 10/40 works fine.

I agree, 10W30 or 10W40 would be fine.

I moved your thread.

What window moldings do you need? The rubber parts are available from Steele Rubber. Actual chrome trim is probably not reproduced for these cars, so you're looking at good used parts only.
