Bart,
I can't tell, but I hope that you black primed the entire area under the class before installing the window. Something I learned long ago.

If not, you will see color when looking at the glass from behind.

ofcourse I did....  :grinno:  :violin:


well... it`s not that big a problem.  I was planning on using PU on the inside to make a clean cut between glass and trim.  I`ll primer it black before applying.

fixed the blowermotor which came in pieces with the car. Boy ,am I glad I didn`t start with a project someone had already taken apart.
fixed the wipermotor ,I just need to get some grommets to bolt it to the car.











cleaned the Dana inside out.  The gears left a good print   :clapping:
I cut off the springpads since they were in the wrong position and Very badly welded. I will tack those in place when all weight is in place.

Looks great!  That rear end looks almost too good to put back under the car!

Don't forget the bushings that go into the grommets either, but you probably thought of that already.
