Thanks Paul................BTW how are those ball joints going to work for you???????????

 

[needsaresto]

I THINK they will be just fine,but if theres any probs I'll let you know. Have no clue on the brand (DMZ) but they look just fine. I'll be yanking the K frame and front susp when the weather warms up and they will be used then,prolly late march?

 

[Nite Moves]

thats great to hear...........I havent heard of them either...They seem fine.

Edd,

Looking good. Cleaning, preping, and painting the Chassis was the worst part so far in my book. HARD to stay motivated... You are doing awesome, frontend looks good and it is gonna stop nice...

Warm Weather coming...

Thanks Joe...........Coming from you and the looks of what you have done makes me happy...BTW grill is going to look great in there.......Thanks again.Edd

 

[Snake]

does it fit your fenders

 

[Nite Moves]

I dont think i want to tell you...............:crybaby:No worries i have a line on a pair of 68,s. A buddy of mine knows were they are.........?????Napanee area?

 

[Snake]

68 fenders will have the wrong head light bucket also you need 67 only.If you can find 67 fenders even if there junk,you can remove the bucket and install them in any 67-69 fender,its just a matter of drilling out the spot welds.Sorry to here the grill is not going in yet.Call National Moparts ask for Scott he can help.1-705-426-2993.The longer this takes your not getting to the paint shop.

 

[needsaresto]

Good info there Snake! I'll keep an eye open for 67 only buckets or fenders. Not a lot shows up around my area though..I end up doing most of my buying on Fabo!

 

[joeboy]

Snake is correct that the 67/69 won't interchange.. I tried it with a 69 grill once on 67 fenders, and also 69 fenders with a 67 grill... No GO!!!

However, I have had a 68 grill on my car with 67 fenders, and switched to the 67 grill no issues... so 68 fenders should fit the grill..

That being said, Edd, I HAD NO IDEA YOU HAD 69 FENDERS, I would've warned ya!

Been there....

[Nite Moves]

Actually Joe..........My fenders that came with the car as well as doors are from a 73..........A lil dissapointing but hell........a price you pay when you fall in love..........:laughing:

 

[joeboy]

Edd,

SO True... I once fell in love with a 340 6pak manifold at a swap meet... I wont say what I paid, or how long it sat in my closet until I finally sold it for WAY less to a buddy...

Good luck finding some 67's or 68's.

wish I had a area to work on mine this winter. Garage is barley enough for two cars.
IM waiting on some decent weather. Looking good what you have accomplished so far.
by the way, your money order was mailed this morning.
Anybody have a dash flasher switch?

 

[needsaresto]

I remember that thread where you bought the car and then found out about the fenders...it's part of buying an old car.Parts get replaced.

 

[Snake]

Well maybe just learned something here hope it works out,however I will be interested to see it.
