Swinging for Divorce…
Painter couldn’t make it over this week, said he has some things come up. Said we can plan for next week, hopefully it won’t be paint and bodywork jail if I use him. He does good work though, and his shop is close to my house.
I did get some proper rear quarter reflector bezels, they won’t be here for a bit, got them from a member on here and he is currently out of town and can’t ship them for a few weeks. No biggie.
I also was able to score this for $400 thanks to @72Dart6pack. It popped up close to him on Facebook Marketplace and I bought it, he picked it up and will be shipping it to me. His words “It's gorgeous. I'd bolt it in just like this. It's already restored.” If it is in perfect shape I won’t have to buy new top plates for a console, and top plates alone cost $700 so I’ll come out ahead not including time. The only issue I see with it is the ash tray, which I have one and they probably aren’t to hard to find a clean one.
I trust his judgment with quality as he did a pretty good job with his car.
