I sure appreciate the help and info,, Thanks David

Thats the exact setup I have,,did you push it in sideways and then down? Also I have not installed the the special nut, i notice the front hole is the right measurement but I will need to drill the back one,,Is there a trick to making them hold cause it sure done look like it will do nothing but spin. Thanks

Got a quick question, I replaced the drivers door skin but now that I have painted it , I knew I had to drill new holes to mount it, But! I dont have a way to thread the mirror cable through the door? The square hole is there on the outside to put it through, but about 1/2" in there is metal plate blocking from going anywhere. My question is for those of you that installed new skins do I need to drill a 3/4" to 1" hole to go through that tab? Of course I have no clue now what the old skin looked like it has been a couple yrs since I replaced. Any help is appreciated. Thanks David

Heres a pic of mine,, what I did was go to the junkyard and find a car with a good sized modern plug from under the hood.. Be sure to have about 1.5 to 2 foot of wire on each side of the donor plug, or in my case i used 2 plugs.. Take your time and wire all gauges up to your new "plug" ((take the time to route the wires real nice and in order)) and then you wire the other side up to your original harness under dash. when you get ready to install or remove you just simply unplug. The bezel will be painted this is the raw plastic from year one.

David, saw your car there sat, but no one was around, was going to introduce myself... your car looked great, how did you do? that black 68 was kick a_ _ !!.

Maybe its just me but sounds like its starving for fuel, and then runs out of fuel??

Very Nice,, looks like your on the downside now! Be driving in no time!!

Trinity is the oxygen sensor new, and where did you place the bung im assuming you have headers.. Sound a little like the o2 sensor??

jg did the owner or did you see what the color is called on the 70,, it kinda looks like the antifreeze green im going to paint mine ,and was wondering of you knew?? thanks for the pics that thing POPS!

litl red You may need to check with CJ`S and make sure they sent the correct lines, dont assume they did. Just my 2 cents you may have already done this.

Thanks David for posting,, I`m cleaning out a few items. Maybe someone can chime in if this was a dealer add-on?? OR am I way to high on the price ??

I`M needing a good drivers side door, I`m in the Dallas, area but willing to travel to a good one. Thanks for your help, u can call me on my cell if you want 972 207-4790 David

James, Congrats on the progress. What you need to be sure and do is take some painters tape blue or green, and tape off all around the area to drill, actually when you measure out make your drill marks on the tape. Measure 4 times to make sure, and then use a very sharp drill bit !!! You dont want it " walking " on your finish. You might take a sharp scribe and "start" the hole indention BUT do not hammer it. Hope this helps good luck.

Arrow, I think your right on with the ad, and the price, BUT I think the problem is the way the economy is at the moment. People including myself are clamping down, and holding on to see what`s going to happen. I think if you keep at it, maybe find some local events you could go to and park it with a for sale sign, you might get lucky. Just give it time and when things turn around someone will grab it. GOOD LUCK

Mikem ,, can you tell us what paint system (brand) they used for your car. Thanks

Thanks so much for the info, these are original and I think their out of whack, the drivers side is a skin replacement and new front fender and it looks good. I have been working this out to be flat but i needed to make sure. Thanks

The shop should warranty that?? Good Luck

Could I get someone to check out there finished door alignment panels. I am wanting someone to take a ruler or straight edge and tell me if the front of your door and the rear of the front fender is basically straight, or does it " dip " in at the gap? If you place a straight edge " horizontal " across your door and fender at the gap, is it flush going from the top body line to the bottom line? Mine seems to curve down about a 1/4" and i am thinking should be flat across. Hope I make sense just trying to get thing lined up for paint. Thanks for your time David

Mikem the gas should not affect the clear, can you look closely and determine if the clear is bubbling or the basecoat paint underneath the clear? If the new paint didnt seal completely the gas could have seeped out, and under the basecoat causing the bubling effect. At least its just the back panel and a reshoot should be easy.

ditto on the king cobra. so far so good
