    Body guys - rust repair question

    Really nice body on this 73 Roadrunner other than this in driver side jamb. How is this repaired properly ? What caused it ? Any other issues I should check on behind this area ? Im posting here due to a few more members than B body site (for now). Thanks.

    70 340 Swinger trim question

    I'm in St Johns county (St Augustine). I'm like 99% certain fenders are original (a little Go Mango peekin' through) - bumpers probably original as well so my guess is no to both, but I have seen some with both, also don't have gutter moulding but have some extra I may install (looks better to...

    71 Duster 340 trim question

    I'm looking to buy a complete 71 340 car I came across - can't get to the fender tag just yet. Did all the 71 340 cars come with the sharktooth grills and 2) did all 340 cars have the black hoods with the "340 wedge" decal ? If not - what codes am I looking for or can you direct me to a decoding...

    factory undercoat question

    Mine is a 70 Swinger, EK2 , no undercoating , no overspray (probably touched up at some point. I'm considering painting the underside - but I guess it won't be "correct" (not that that's a big concern right now - but the car is an original 340 , 4-spd car)

    factory undercoat question

    If a 1970 A body came without undercoating, would it be body color underneath ? Mine has no undercoating but appears to be painted black. I know some of the other bodies came painted undersides.

    Rear quarter window question .....

    Just got a reply from Layson .... 29.00 each. Jims wants 49.00 each, what's up with that ? R/T is worthless regarding response times/assistance/customer svc. May have just been a couple of bad experiences for me only, but it was enough to turn me sour against R/T. I'm sure they're good people (?).

    Question about sealer

    If you want to spray an epoxy sealer over your surfacer (paint isn't going down for awhile) you can, and then 600 wet sand the sealer prior to shooting, I've done this as funds don't always allow jumping straight to the paint booth and you need to seal the surfacer as it can absorb...

    Rust Removal using Electrolysis

    I've done this quite a few times and if you don't have a sandblaster - it works every bit as good, just takes awhile longer and your best to wire wheel after to clean off residual. I use a battery charger but have noticed the leads get smokin' hot - what's up with that ?

    Rear quarter window question .....

    I'll find a set - it's cruisin' weather so windows can stay down as long as I avoid rain. This track really helps guide the window at the right angle, without it I have to grab it and ease it into place when fully up and snug, probably can live without it for awhile .... Thanks.

    Rear quarter window question .....

    That's it but.....50 bucks a piece ? Give me a break .... I could probably find a whole used assembly for less - I'll start looking.

    Rear quarter window question .....

    I was sent the wrong rollers - nice try by a vendor. On my 73 Swinger ... I need the nylon roller (or assembly) that rides in the rearmost track - sits at a 45 and the roller is gone leaving the stud with the 3/8" or so steel ball - know what I mean ? Appears to me the roller itself may not be...

    Color poll

    Your car - your color choice. A poll is just going to confuse you more (been there). Black or white interiors always leave you with unlimited choices. The main thing is a killer paint job - any of those colors will look good if the car is done right. Good paint and the right wheels make or break...

    windshield install ...

    Thanks - I'll give it another shot this weekend, not sure where we're out of whack , I think we may not be seating the glass into the bottom channel far enough, making the top way too tight ..

    windshield install ...

    We got the back in - the front ain't so easy. We can set the glass into the bottom groove and get the gasket around the glass about half way up on each side, after that it's too tough. Gasket is set in place, using plenty of WD40 and plastic tool used for this purpose. Should we try using some...

    who has silver a bodies?

    Amen to that .. silver is one of (if not THE) most popular colors on the road, start looking around. Are impact colors brighter, yeah. Are they "safer" colors, statistically maybe (never seen a study regarding). Would I use this info to base what color I wanted to paint my toys ? Nope - daily...

    who has silver a bodies?

    I've got plenty of pics of silver A bodies - one of my favorite colors. My Dart was silver actually (first paint job) - the painter could not shoot silver and I re-prepped and went sublime shot by someone else! IF you consider silver - make certain your painter can handle it !

    Homegrown trim restore

    Been there and done all this on a 67 Dart - lotsa trim, rockers, full length body moulding, etc. For some pieces, to strip off the clear - I built a trough out of a piece of vinyl rain gutter, allowed me to soak it overnite in the solution. Can't find the product online right now, but I bought...
