1963 Dart 170 2 Door Post Resto
Bit of a stall for a few days but trying to get back at it. Think I may have torn a rotator cuff or really bad pulled shoulder muscle. Sore as heck but gotta keep moving. Not gonna finish itself (was hoping it would but no luck...).
Bought new stainless wipers and spare refills for it as well as recieved the new licence plate clips and rubber bumpers.
Got the bumpers and clips installed. The bumpers I ordered were perfect. Really tight going in but once in they for the hole perfect. For anyone looking they came from rubber the right way past number 30-016B. They are made by Steele rubber.
Ran into my usual one step back with the wipers. The new ones have a different mount than what was on the car. I must have messed up when I was ordering them. Fortunately the originals are ANCO as well so I just polished them up and used the refills. (Red dot anti lift style).
Even got motivated and installed the trunk weatherstrip.
Think tomorrow will be the door weatherstrip or maybe some sanding and polish on the door sills... If my shoulder holds up that is.
This week I think I'll be prepping the panels that needed work and hopefully do the final paintwork so I can do final reassembly of all the metal panels. Can't wait to get to the finish line. Getting really close now
