Re: Project "Mid Life Crisis Low Rider Burb"

I also got the brake pedal assembly and the parking brake pedal all painted and installed. I sent out the 3 door catches, the hood hinges and the hood latch for chrome powdercoating and they came back real nice. That was $80 bucks. I got the inners all bolted up to the fenders. The gloss black is like a mirror. Got the radiator support all bolted up and the fenders installed. It took some work to get everything close. I had to trim some holes to get it close. I bought a new Goodmark cowl hood and bolted it on. A few more hours and the alignment wasnt too bad. The radiator support cushions were too high and the tops of the fenders were pinching on the doors so out they came. I had to shim about 1/2 the height of the cushions.
