But I thought I 'd run mine over the roof and trunk as well...sort of like a 70-72.

I'm the 2nd & 4th owner of the car. ( I never buy a car back, oops ) Bought it first back in 1985, had it for a year, bought it back in 99'. Motor was trashed in 85'. Car seemed to be unmolested??? You never know about PMD.

Sorry, I misunderstood where you were coming from. I had to go back(re-read) and figure out where I "went off to left field".

I must admit those black tailight bezels sure make a nice contrast against the blue...now you got me wondering?? I also changed my blue interior to black. It was a lot of work & $$$ but as with the tailghts the black sets it off.
Just when I thought it was done.
