Another Mopar Off My Bucket List - Barracuda Fastback
I've been busy today but not on our own stuff. My buddy that's restoring the old Dodge sedan brought over some more trim to be polished. Most of the pieces really should be re-plated but he's trying to keep costs down. I told him I could 'improve' them but I can't work miracles with the buffer.
It's mainly door & window handles with their escutcheons. He also brought hubcaps and the cowl trim.
Shortly after I got the trim parts another guy stopped over asking for help on his '65 Chevelle. He had some problems with his battery cables. The starter cable had melted against the exhaust manifold and the ground cable was pretty funky too. I would have put him off but he'd been bugging me for awhile for a hand with all sorts of other issues and always caught me when I was in the middle of other stuff. I think he's gotten to the age where he can't crawl under the car anymore.
