thanks , muchly appreciated

I havea '72 Scamp with a steel hood and no hood springs . Is there a way to install struts ? what struts ? Where to mount them ? the hood is getting heavy and I'm old . TIA , Tom

I suggest you contact "Mr.G's fasterers" as well . His online catalog should answer your questions . some front and rear clips look the same but upon close inspection are different , so be careful here . An existing clip from your car (or a parts car) would be helpful if your window is still...

The clips on the left picture appear to be the ones for the windshield but I'm not sure . stainless screws appear to be correct . If you install them backwards the stainless trim will never go on . so be careful there . I believe you can't install them backwards anyway because the screw...

Aircraft stripper is crap . I think you're money and time ahead by having it blasted . You don't have to use black beauty , per say . there's walnut shells, rice hulls , plastic pellets and other media that won't warp the metal . A real pro will know whichto use .

Correct , the new glass is not as thick . however, "3M" automotive glass sealer will do the same thing . I know it's expensive ($25.00 tube) but why cheap out and have a leaking windshield ?

I have a '72 Scamp also . New windshield and gasket , leaks like a sieve . The installer didn't use ANY sealer . Asshat ! You need to use sealer all around the gasket and in the corners where there is no coverage . Yup , myne has to come out . No one up here knows what they're doing .

Check with Classic Industries . Ijust looked up windshield gasket for '72 a-body and I think there are 2 for your ride . I didn't look up anything or the rear . I just ordered my windshield gasket from summit because I knew the "Precision Gaskets " part number andI don't want to deal with...

Mr. G's.com in Texas . that's all he does .

I thought '73 was first year for 5mph bumpers ?

love it , keep it up . expand if you can

It is a fresh air vent that is connected to the cowl opening without factory A/C . On cars without heaters there are 2 of them . One on each side . Often called "poor mans air conditioning " go down the road with both open and the vent windows open all the way and its like a mini-tornado...

IMO the "K" is toast . No matter how much you want to use it you gotta ask yourself . "Is it worth my life to use a damaged part ".

Unfortunatly there is no factory template available because the fender holes were done at the stamping plant . I'm afraid that you will have to measure yourself or make your own template from an existing one .

IIRC it's 30% gloss

Agree with all so far . tape (remove right away), blankets , moving blankets and cotton car covers . If you have pro s work on your car tell them flat out that your car is finished and you won't pay them if they damage it in ANY way . Don't be afraid to tell people to keep their hands OFF ...

fenderwells inside and out ; body color . K-frame , bumper brackets , trans mount , springs , rear axle : black . inside trunk : body color

If FABO doesn't work try : Desert Valley auto Parts in Arizona . they are on the web and advertise in Hemmings

Lock up that angle grinder . Not on sheet metal . Stripping discs or DA . Spend the money on good quality materials . You will thank yourself later . "cheap ain't good and good ain't cheap " You can always sell the equipment later and recoup some of the costs .

You must remove ALL the rust and then cover the metal with a product that deprives the metal of oxygen and moisture . There is no easy , cheap way to do this . Blast the rust , etching primer , sealer and I use LIzard Skin on the inside and paint & clear . When done keep car out of sunlight...

Mr. G's in Texas , he makes them .

You can get it too low (disaster) but never too high . Measure , measure , measure

Roloc is good . 180 is good . brushblasting is good . chemical dipping is good . dustless blasting is good . I have done everything but dustless . chemical dipping leaves the best finish IMO

I used "Lizard Skin" inside the car and DUI overhead and on the firewall . the underside is painted and clear coated because it's easier to keep clean . they are both GREAT products . Do NOT use the products from the home center ! Most are asphalt based and you can't get the smell out . You...

Mr.G's has the clips . As was said earlier , strip chaulk , neoprene chaulk , rubber strip all work well .

What about Valiant sedan doors ?

I love detailed chassis . Looks good .

I like the paint stick idea .

The tool id called "a church key". Using 2 of them helps . Put tape on contact points .
