Re: 1968 Chevy Bel Air Wagon Project

Thank you Getter-Done for the link. My favorite is definitely the '60
buick wagon, I really love '60 Buicks.
Fun, BossHogg69, that I had made some progress since last you looked
at my thread. I work on a pretty tight scedule, MOT last of April, and there's
loads of stuff to do.
Clyde65, I wish I had memories of American cars from my childhood,
but, as I wrote at some point earlier, I do my best to make memories of
American cars for new generations.

Slow progress, as always. Feels like swimming in glue at times. The last few
days I have been working on the last things to paint, and today I cleared the
rear side window moldings, the horisontal center piece that goes under the
head lights and inside the bumper, fuel filler door and front valance plate (the
sheet metal under the grille), which usually is gray on the '68s. Mine's blue
now.
When I came home I mounted the tail lights and rear side markers. The four
on the tail gate don't work yet, but the outermost ones do. That has to
suffice until after the May cruising.



The Chevrolet emblem on the tail gate is the only emblem who's holes I
didn't weld up. All others were in such bad shape, that they were of no use anyway.
