Your not putting that cover on while its raining..I applaud your feelings ........... are you my long lost son?
No it wouldn't go one once it's wet, but If I caught it before it starts...........
Dave, Who knows LOL.

How did you redo the chrome trim on the bezel?
Thanks Bob.
Fred, it's a product meant for Model cars (one of my other hobbies), works well for this. The owner of the company recently passed away and everything went into his estate, his son it supposed to be taking over and filling orders again.

Thanks for the link. Looks terrific.
It does the job well, most Hobby shops stock it as well.

Edit: it's fairly easy to apply once you get through the initial learning curve.
x2...........thanks Nick!

Jazebelle stays pretty dry inside when sitting still in the rain. I do get some water past the header seal when driving though...... Gotta work on that.... It WILL be rained on again... I'm sure.

Here is a link to a foil tape supplier that I use. I have used the "Bare Metal" and it works pretty good..... This foil tape looks just like chrome when installed and holds up a little better.

The one thing that really surprised me about the 300. I drove it in a driving rain right after I got it running to have the radiator flushed and then it sat out in the rain all day and not a drop inside.
Tinkering, dash isn't perfect, primed the steel part, dyed the pad after my crappy repairs.
Great work Nick
She's looking very nice to me Nick!!!

That vinyl dye does a nice job. What other repairs did you do on the dash pad.
Thanks Mike!
Thanks Bob, I'm on the downward spiral now.
It had a huge holes in it from previous owners, I did what I could.
That is pretty amazing Jake.
