    how long to wait after paint before vinyl top

    well you can spray a car, let it sit 24 hrs and color sand it. So in 24 hrs (in most cases) the paint has cured. After three weeks i would have it done and be happy, your getting close! In the end its up to the top installer as stated.

    Hood Adjustment 68 Dart

    not true, its not uncommon for the hinges to be more to one side than the other, we are talking factory tolerances here. Something that can help is to open the hood, then push near the hinges towards the other fender. a couple shoves and it will move it over.

    Hood Adjustment 68 Dart

    sometimes you have to elongate the holes but how is the support bracket sitting in reference to those two nuts at the top of the core support? you can loosen and move the top of the support over.

    Where to find wiper linkage parts?

    yea ive tried all that, even bought more bushings, nothing is worn or bushing issues. The old ones just fell out one day as they turned to little peices lol. Ive seated them only to have them come apart after a couple of uses

    Where to find wiper linkage parts?

    i replaced all those stupid )(#@% bushings nad they still just pop apart. Im going to steal the metal linkage style from my 68 for my daily. I think they are a safety hazard and should be replaced with the older style.

    Prepping for Vinyl top Pissing me off

    the tang just keeps it from rattling. most of these clips have 1/4-20 or 10-32 studs. i would find a set that does and install will be easier

    Prepping for Vinyl top Pissing me off

    is that stud threaded or smooth? kinda hard to tell from the pic. Also we had to make the holes when we did a full 1/4 panel on a 70 charger. Easiest thing to do is just like you did, make a line and measure up, then drill the holes.

    Help with wet sand and buff

    go 4 coats of clear. use a hardbloc (i'll find a link in a bit) with 1000 grit wet paper till you just cut the orange peel off, how ever many passes it took do that again. One pass is say from the top of the fender to the body line, should be about 5 strokes, or one pass. usually 10 passes...

    Where to start on repairing this Demon???

    only thing to add is DONT USE THE ZINC ONES... even with direct fans i still got sick from it. i will only use the SEM Copper weld thru now, its not cheap but has the most "normal" welding properties, and what i mean by that is the least splatter, almost like its not even there.
