1966 Dodge Dart
Not much happening lately that I can report on. I found out I put the rear window in to soon and its going to have to come out. The reason for this is because i only put the clips on not thinking about the trim around the rear window that goes on before the clips. Whatever you do, dont make this mistake!! So I decided to start some polishing of the trim since I have to polish the rear window trim and Im finding out this is a time consuming part. Here are the pics of the headlight bezels I did.
The first pic is one completed and one that needs done. The second one is with both completed and one of my spare bezels that needs done.
Then I moved onto some trim. The 2 trim strips that go down the rear quarters had some damage that needed fixed and i started on them but will finish them later this week. Heres the one piece that i repaired tonight and the tools that I made to repair it.
So thats where I am at right now. Ill post pics later this week of this trim finished and polished. Im hoping to get the car back into the garage in a few days and get the interior and trim put on.
I did order 2 bumpers that are to be ready in Mid January and I will need to get to Allentown Pa for a car show where they will be delivered. So if anyone else is going to be there let me know so we can say hello! Oh, almost forgot I actually found 2 decent reverse lights in really good shape and they were only 20 miles from me! Im still going to need to do the front grill and I think thats going to be the most time consuming part and also the most difficult!
One last thing to fellow Dart owners, I still looking for the Dodge emblem that goes on the rear trunk with the Dodge emblem attached. Should you find one that in good shape please let me know. I know theres one on Ebay but Im not paying $175 for it!
Thanks Rod
