I bought new wing upright gaskets some 33 years ago. I actually found them before tearing the car apart. Now where the f they went, along with an original AWOL... I have no idea at this point! Looked for them for 3 or 4 days and gave up.

Man, I've spent weeks or more looking for stuff for my Belvedere!!

....BTW....a year on....how's the arm?

Better than the left one that I distal tore my bicep muscle off of Christmas 2016.,, but that ain't saying much. Chicks dig scars though, so I'm good! LOL

Hey Wayne, what cars does THIS little one get?? Get it sorted now to prevent "disagreements" later!!!

 

[JDmac72chrgr]

If you have cars, you're gonna have scares!!

Something was indicating that I should get to work.

Park/signal light assemblies bolted into place and vacuum and electrical hooked up.

Cleaned up the lenses ready to install.

Fought for an hour to get the two 1157 yellow bulbs into their sockets, made sure they worked and then buttoned them up.

Spiffy..

Cleaned up the nose seals with scrubbing bubbles. Just amazing stuff making them look like new. I originally installed these in February 1990.

Before..

After with seals into place.

Spent 2+ forking hours looking for my 33 year old box of Spae-Naur 310-316 rivets.

Now I need to look for my rivet gun.. LOL

I know all too well about spending too much time looking for stuff that shouldn't be lost in the shop....

 

[dadsbee]

Found my 30 year old gun. It's pulled well over a million rivets and hasn't let me down!

Seals all riveted down.

Some correct captive washer bolts media blasted for the outer nose seals.

Dipped in Boeshield T9

Seals going in.

Somewhere along the line the "masking fairy" went AWOL.

We'll fix that up right now..

All better...

Figure it was better to use vacuum than to keep pulling the headlights up by hand.

Ready for headlight assemblies.

 

[dadsbee]

Cleaned all of these up a long time ago

Headlight assembly parts.

One adjuster mount into place.

25% done

50% done..

Hell they even work!

 

[71dodgechargerrt]

Looking great.

 

[Charger72]

Nice!

 

[71Beeper]

Great job Wayne!

 

[Cranky]

That Boeshield T9 is 11 bucks for 4oz from AircraftSpruce.....must be good stuff.

Unfortunately for that price, it's a little American gallon, not a full sized Imperial gallon.
You getting that from Aircraft Spruce?

 

[71Beeper]

Amazon.ca carries it.

At that price you're paying $45 for that "free" delivery. You could drive to Brantford's Aircraft Spruce and back for less than that yourself from Stoney..

It's $117US / gallon for our American friends..

I bought a spray can off of Amazon to try it out.

Amazon product ASIN B001447PEK
Not sure that I need a whole gallon of it but seems like good stuff.
