Welcome.
I have a '71 Esprit, and in my restification only three interior parts are truly elusive.
1) Deluxe/Custom interior lower door pocket
2) Deluxe/Custom interior seat back panel
3) Rear window plastic trim.

Standard interior vehicle do not have the concern for #1 and #2, those are repop'd.

Just about any mechanical, electrical, body or trim part can be found. Some parts can be $$, but at least there are option.

Other than that, some OEM replacement parts were updated during the 12 year vehicle run, so a correct replacement part (functionally & fit) may look different.
For Esprit and base 'bird owners, that shouldn't be an issue, the cars will NEVER be worth the effort it takes to get a "correct" part.

For a grand, if a solid shell and running, why not? Or let me know where it is???? (j/k)

Buy it, and report back to us.
