Rapom's Rocket - just another Duster build thread
WARNING: picture heavy update inbound. Haven't been posting cuz I've been "gettin 'er done"!
OMG what did I do?
Windshield removed in order to replace the dash and rebuild the heater box and wiper pivots. It literally took me three days of pain and frustration to get the stainless trim off without destroying it in the process. There was vinyl top material and hardened windshield gasket "sealer" packed into and around all the trim clips which prevented them from moving enough to release the trim. Never again. I spent several more days sanding and polishing 48 years of scratches out of the stainless. There was only one teeny tiny little ding in all of it and I worked most of that out before polishing. Looking good!
