cool! Isn't that a bitch with pins and inside release, do you have to run out and remove the pins first?


RE my B11: I knew it and you knew it, this was 3rd printing 1992. :naughty:

Yes and yes.

V21 Hood performance treatment (wedges and 383 callouts) or pins???

V21 Hood performance treatment (wedges and 383 callouts) or pins???

Here's what I got.. The pins looked hokey when I got the car but I replaced them with a little bit less wrong ones from hardons about 1988. So pins aren't correct but I'll probably keep them .

all I have for stripes is the little 1/4 inch deals in the birdbaths.

The body is virgin so..:huh:


My goal here is nice and shiney summer driver, while having a good look at how it was made.

 

[71GTX]

Yes and yes.

:shifty: yes it

Actually did something today

Lower grill that sits in the valance. This one is is from the roadrunner. the one from the blue valance bought in 1989 has a screw "pillar???" broken and is otherwise in good shape.

the donor grille was from the satty.

pics kinda tell it. Oh yeah, this was just a pencil tip soldering iron and shavings for filler.

Is that the shop foreman telling you to get back to it?

 

[BootHead]

nah she's asking if it's break time yet.

TX9 Black upper door frame paint

TX9 Black upper door frame paint. I guess for 71 we call it: Black rear door frame paint?

you can see it peeking out under the panels so it would look pretty stupid yellow, with the door closed.

Parts Car Fender Tag Decode

Haven't done much with the rr except trip over it a few times :doubt:

Decoded the parts car, unless there's a 35mm roll of film undeveloped I only have pics of the parts. It was pretty wasted, rust everywhere even the roof was un-usable (where I need it).

Gee, that thing was pretty dolled up for 318 car.

318 powered gtx

It was optioned out pretty nice. I'd have to go back to the v top, but that's just me.

Well yeah, it will go back G-Y3 with black vinyl top, I meant that I wished I could have saved tearing off the top, but alas I must to do the pillar work.

Also dug up this old irrelevant thread to show everyone my super specialicious green paint under the yellow.
