68 GT convertible project
Here are some more parts I've been working on. Now that the parts came back from the plater, I've been able to put a few things back together.
parking light housings before
After a long EvapoRust soak. I hit the sockets with the buffing wheel to get them looking a little nicer...not perfect but I hope they won't be too noticeable behind the grill.
Shifter before...
after...
E-brake mechanism before...
I still need to buy a different handle. Mine is broken.
DS fresh air door before...
Even after spraying the door with high build primer and sanding it out, it looked really bad. I ended up spraying it with wrinkle paint. I like the look and will be doing the same thing to the heater box door. The hinge was in bad shape so I added another rivet in the center for some more support.
I just cleaned up the rear end bumpers. The brackets are coated with RPM so they won't rust.
