    white vinyl cleaner

    OK, so I ordered my 303 to put on the top. However, I need to get it clean first. Despite it being a new top, it's already dirty (I can tell from the fact I left a towel on the roof for a while and now that segment is much whiter than the rest of the top, and this was in the garage). What do...

    Trunk weatherstrip questions

    Juat wanted to make sure. The “open” part of the “V” goes outward towards the car body, correct? Also, just making sure it lays down on top of the raised channel portion (see pic 2). Third, it goes down in front of the tall section that is above the bumper, or does it stop/start on the sides...

    DMT lower valance radiator spash shield

    Has anyone ordered/installed the DMT "1969-72 C-Body Dodge Polara/Monaco Lower Valance Radiator Splash Shield"? I forgot to start the installation before I put on the bumper and lower valance. For the life of me, I can't figure out how it's supposed to go. It certainly doesn't look like it...

    Phoenix area painter recommendation

    OK, so after putting several hundred hours into this thing, I've decided I'm going to have the Sport Fury painted by someone who has a decent setup. Thing is, all the people I know out here are too busy to do it right now and time is of the essence. So, does anyone have any recommendations for...

    Evercoat blue hardner

    Does anyone know why there's 5 or 6 different blue hardeners by Evercoat (354, 359, 360, etc)? There seems to be little information online about them and their applications. And there's little information on the tube of blue hardener I'm almost out of.

    flat or satin, that is the question

    On the 70 Sport Fury, the factory "blacked out" the area behind where the headlight buckets mount. It seems like the paint is flat black, but this could be due to age and dirt blasting against it. Anyone know if it is supposed to be satin or flat? I also have the same question for the black...

    PPG Deltron DBC, suggestions...

    What am I looking at for a gallon of this in FP6 Frosted Teal Poly? Mainly, I want to see if anyone knows of any online retailers who may have it cheaper than the local shops here in Phoenix. Alternatively, is someone would like to recommend a different brand, etc., I'm open to suggestions...

    Rust never sleeps....

    I've gotta say, while I've used them before, I'm super impressed with the 3M Bristle Disc (green one) when it comes to handling rust. It eats it right up. Now if I only didn't wast about 4 hours today with the front valance, bumper, fender extensions..., I'd have gotten a lot further with rust...

    drip rail molding removal

    So, vinyl top has been removed. Got about half the glue removed off the roof. Sort of slow going but not too bad. Thought it would be worse. So, true to form, my top is actually not painted. It's gray primer over the rust color primer with the body color paint jammed around the doors...

    baked on vinyl top...glue cleanup

    OK, so I'm about to remove my vinyl top and put on a new one. This top was fairly baked in some places, fine in others. I wanted to save the paint under it as I didn't want to have to repaint the whole roof. Only issues are on the c-pillars at the seams, which will be stripped and filler...

    70 SF window channel repair

    So, I've completed the necessary repairs in my rear window channel. This included treating some surface rust, cutting out heavy rust where there were holes straight through, and welding in new metal. I have started the windshield lower channel. There was one hole straight through in the...

    gas...or no gas?

    OK, so I have a bit of MIG welding coming up on the Sport Fury. First thing I'm going to do is pull the rear window, clean out the window channel, and see how bad the rust is and what needs replacing. There is a very small area on the tulip panel (I think that's what the area between the trunk...
