'67 Chevelle Concours wagon, bring it back to life

Vinyl application...3M Di-Noc Dark Walnut. Di-Noc is actually mentioned in The AIM. A 5 yard roll was just right. I have always preferred dry application of vinyl, and fortunately dry is what was specified.

I started with the fenders and added the trim before moving towards the rear. Pretty straight forward, applied an adhesion promoter on edges and a heat gun to wrap edges. The fenders needed to be off to wrap the rear edges of the fenders and forward edges of the front doors. Also the fender trim clips are retained with nuts on the back side.
To have enough vinyl to properly wrap the gas door and opening required using a separate piece and line up the grain to match pattern.

It just keeps getting better with each step of the process...definitely one of the best SYC 'follow along' threads I've seen.

Great work...

This thread is so darn good, it warrants its own dedicated folder on my PC.

First wagon in my archives.

The way this ‘67 is progressing, with the finish line in site, it will stack up and belong with all your other spectacular Survivors.

Great job!

Wow. That's great.
