Look locally for used parts. I found original parts for my door and fender and used them but the amount of work it took to get them ready made me think I would have been better with reproduction or at least even. It's ugly but not terrible. Fender looks good in that photo.

Do you meant the stainless single strip of trim? I’ve been doing my stainless and it does take hours. I also did not have any major pits. I would just get it shiny. It is close to the ground and not easily seen and the tires will throw more debris at it.

I plan to do electronic ignition but no box just everything inside the distributor. probably Pertronix maybe MSD or Progression

Hopefully it is just something bumped the bulb in the trunk. First time I ever got pulled over in my car I was 16 and dropping my dad at the airport. I got pulled over for tail light being out. I opened the trunk and it was because my dad's suitcase had bumped the bulb in the trunk and I just needed to reseat it. I am torn about getting an indoor dust only cover for my car. Maybe I should just get a good cotton sheet. My car will be in the garage but it gets dusty in there. -

I love this idea of putting the tweeters in the dash. I wanted to add some but could not figure out an inconspicuous location. -

See what Vic wrote. I did not want to get impaled and it actually makes it easier to me to let the wheel pull the piece and me pull back against it instead of a push/push the other way. I thought the quarter window trim was chrome. I'll have to pull it out and do it too. I know the boomerang is chrome and won't be polishing that on the buffer. I may use a little compound on a rag and polish by hand. Thanks. I knocked out the rest of the trim yesterday. I went back over it several times and got most of the fine swirls out where a DA buffer overlapped the trim in the past. I'm really impressed with how shiny it is now. -

Started polishing my stainless trim. Made a short YouTube video about it. -
Russia isn't good for anything except bots, senseless killing and wars. We make better vodka in Texas (Tito's) and even Stoli is an American brand

I gave them the PPG code off the old 69 Mustang color palette that everyone has seen and told them they needed to covert it from single stage to bc/cc. Those two were Axalta line Chromabase $$$ and Nason $. They also got a third one from Matrix that is better shading but lower price and that one is what we went with. Top of this pile. Using the savings on base to get a better clear -

It is, they are two different shades. The one on the right was too orange.
