Dave, Is that GE's Glyptal on the wiper motor? Looks great!

BIG,

Yeah, that's the stuff! Kind of a shame that big air cleaner hides it. But, big air cleaner means big engine, and if said air cleaner was smaller, then it wouldn't be an A12 car.....no thread....no posts....Darrell would be stuck in Camaroville not being tempted by another make.....Bob wouldn't even give me the time of day....and the list goes on. Man, what was the question? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

Cheers

True.. Although I do not see myself restoring or preserving a MOPAR for myself... I wouldnt bet against me doing so on something other than a 'Maro.. Just sayin'.. http://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smi...ech/secret.gif

Thanks, I've never paid much attention to the details on the MoPar wiper units.....I enjoy following along and appreciate the lessons.

Whelp.. Its been 2017 for almost 9hrs now and I dont see any new updated pics... <span style="font-weight: bold">No Rest For The Wicked</span>, you gonna need to <span style="font-weight: bold">Fly Like An Eagle</span>, because <span style="font-weight: bold">Time Is On My Side</span>, but you could end up with <span style="font-weight: bold">No Time</span>; unfortunately <span style="font-weight: bold">Time Waits For No One</span>. But if you had <span style="font-weight: bold">Time In A Bottle</span> then you would have <span style="font-weight: bold">Time</span> but if you look at this as <span style="font-weight: bold">Passing The Time</span> you willl end up thinking <span style="font-weight: bold">Those Were The Days</span> and itll be <span style="font-weight: bold">Too Late For Love</span> for the ole bee..

Yeps......it's this job thing! But fear not! Next week will be filled with photos, nonsensical mutterings, and various useless facts nobody cares about!

More to come. ....

Steam gun? Check! Glue? Check! Second carpet standing by for when I cut this one wrong? DOUBLE CHECK!!!![img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] The carpet is down and it's starting to resemble an interior again! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] What about those doors? Well, there's been some set backs, and only a select few know the gorey details, but just know the Beater Bee and me are officially blood blothers. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/thumbsdown.gif[/img] Meanwhile, I did get the passenger side door finished. Gary's car has 53K miles on it, and was parked inside most of it's life so there is very minimal wear on the door panels. As you can see here, after a good cleaning, they're just about perfect!

I can't install the back panels until after I get the headliner installed which will be in about a week or so. It's 24 degrees and everything needs to warm up before I start on the top and headliner. H-Town shuts down when it gets below about 50. Matter of fact, I think the only de-icing truck that IAH has is an old 1972 F-150 Ranger that's half rusted out and may even run on the Type IV deicing fluid that it sprays the planes with [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Here you can see the interior trim code written on the back of one of the original rear interior panels. And new headliner insulation installed.[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
