Thumbs up
Bump for a good thread

Did you wind up using an old valence or try new? Over the last year or so I’ve seen a repro that looked good and maybe cost about $225 iirc.

Keep up the great work!

Decided to fix an original. I saw / held the repro at Ames and it was nice.
Doors are done

Not much new. Winter in New England. The radiator support is being repaired (instead of buying a repop). Ordering new front inner fender wells.

That looks great. I noticed the forward part of the rear quarter in the door jam is smooth. Did you do body work there to smooth it out? Is that an early build? What plant?

Really solid candidate you have there!
You know about the issues that 'dataway' brought up regarding the radiator core support?
