Thank you. I must disclose, however, that the pic you see of the AMD piece with the threaded inserts is before welding. Although I did some tack/butt welds on the front side, I spot/butt welded behind the threaded inserts as you won't see the welds when the structure is fully welded into its...
I removed the latch support structure and am replacing it with an AMD repro. Unfortunately, the AMD repro doesn't have the factory threaded inserts for the trunk latch, just holes. So, I cut out the factory inserts and welded them into the repro latch structure. The tail panel and trunk latch...
Thanks MoparCarGuy. This also confirms that I should only have one hole (license plate light, which I do have) for the rear trunk floor. Very much appreciate your pics and quick response!
Attached pic shows several holes in the rear trunk floor of my 70 Chall R/T. I need help figuring out which holes are factory/stock and which holes are not so I can weld the non-factory/stock ones closed. Your wisdom/knowledge is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Apologies for my late reply Moparlee, but thank you for the kind words. Very much appreciated. A very good friend of mine is a die-hard "Go Blue!" fan. He constantly reminds me of how many days till college football begins. :)
For Sale. 71 Gull Wing, including pedestals, gaskets, etc. Pedestal-to-gull wing mounting brackets broke (see pics), but I believe repros are available. Not sure if all of the hardware shown is factory correct, but there are factory numbers on the gull wing, pedestals, and mounting gaskets...
Complete set of four Rally Wheels, with center caps and original trim rings (brushed?). Trim rings have some curb rash and some dings but I think are restorable. Good news all four rims are dated 1/6, bad news is one rim is bent (see pics) but I think it may be repairable. I have two...
Thank you Chryco Psycho! Hilarious call sign! And from Panama too! Never been there, but know a few military buds that were assigned there back in the day. Everyone said it was a great time.
Thank you moparleo! Love the SR-71 avatar. That and the XB-70 are my all time favorites. These two aircraft are the most beautiful ever. But THE "musclecar aircraft" of all time is the mighty F-4! It is mean looking, especially in "E" configuration with that 6000rnds/min Vulcan cannon. :)
Thank you Cuda U Code! Was thinking of retiring in TN. Good friend of mine lives in Pulaski...retired and bought 160acres, built new home...loving it. I had a Mopar Guy (68 fastback cuda 340) build my garage. It's 30'x40' with 12ft cathedral trusses to keep roof pitch low, but allow the car...
