The Jalopy Journal
Come on don't stop know. Killer thread on a great car.
I already did that to the front, one of the first things I did.
Random search and found this thread..thought I'd bring it back.
Lots of ideas when I get it i'm gonna pull both of mine and see what I like the best
That's it. Do you have any better front pics..
Never thought about the front, if I get it I'm getting the apron with it. Its on a ambulance a friend of mine is using for parts.
So I done some digging and its actually not a 49 but a 46/47 front bumper.
Thanks for the input guys, Its a freebee so im going to go ahead and get it. Prolly just put it back in the parts stash.
So I have the chance to get the front bumper off a 49 caddy, it is really good shape chrome to also the front apron. Thinking about using it on...
Great MO thanks for the info mines is a 50. I just can't decide which ones I want to use.
Did your 53 teeth need to be modified to fit. I did a 54 with 11 teeth and the ones closest to the parking lights had to be trimmed
hey MO are these and the ones in your car 54 teeth?
ok anymore pictures, that is just beautiful.
It's a auto, 1972 250 6and turbo 350. My gramps converted the shifter, it's about in the position of nuteral on a 3spd. I want to change it...
Here is what I did.
I found the cover at a local parts house, made for these new cars though. It took 2 of them to cover the 50's wheel. Thanks FrankenRodz
Thanks, Like I said earlier my car doesn't have them. I was thinking about getting the chrome clips pieces and making my own. like you said...
Thanks for the info on the wheel cover. If you don't mind I have a couple more questions, first did you buy or make you trunk panels? Mine doesn't...
:-):-) were did you get the wheel cover
Crossed my mind, think thats why I never caught any one in the 53 I had.
Your thread is what got me wondering about mine. Cause it definitely needs help..
Thought that at first but he is a car guy to. So he wasn`t you could tell in his face.
Ok guys I have a 50 2dr styleline .And Im wondering if anyone has a picture of the original heater thats under the dash?
I have read this entire thread..lots of great info, and great work. This is a awsome car.
No cant lock the doors. The button in the handle wont turn. And the rod to lock from the inside is gone. Something I now plan on fixing very soon.
Lookingfor keys is what im thinking to. It now parked in front of the front door
Ok so I understand that our cars get looked at when they are parked some where, its not a problem. But I just had a work buddy come in and tell me...
Thanks its good to be back.
To cool dude I spent a couple hours reading your build thread. Before I rejoined...awesome car.
