71-72 door pulls.

In the last pic you can see where 2 of the screws have pulled through the aluminum
on the strap mounts. I don't really see it as a problem because they have the 2 long
screws holding them to the door anyway.

Cosmetically, the only things you see are the pulls and trim covers. Almost every door pull I've seen or have has exactly the same issue with the stitching worn away. It can be reworked if you really feel the need, but on a 46 year old part??? Also, the door pulls can easily be dyed or SEM painted to match the interior of the car.
The trim covers are reproduced if you want that brand new look. Some of us have a collection of OEM ones that are in really decent survivor condition. With a little cleanup on the backing metal plate, a few new end screws (and maybe a quick clear coat to keep it from flash rusting again) this project could be one of the easiest on the books.
