Hi friends. Sorry about the disappearing act, the DeSoto has been taking some of my time, but now reporting again.
But first, welcome to the field apederso2 and thanks for your support. Lovely car there too buddy. I am thrilled at seeing both your car and that of JS27NOB next to each other. Just makes me even more excited at the sight. One thing though, my interior would be more creamy than your whites.
OK, body work still doing more stripping, no major hurdles. Only the rear fenders' lip or whatever you call the round part above the wheels, has been seriously repaired. Tomorrow I am visiting someone who has a car he is stripping. If all works, I will pick both rear fenders and the inner skins too.
I started on restoring the A/C - heater unit and need some advice here before I go too far. Is there someone selling a set of internal joints/gaskets etc for the unit. Mine has some cracks on one of the sides, and if I cannot find a good one here, it is easy to rpair with fiber glass.
If you see the last pic of my open unit, there seems to be a rubber sheet covering the whole of the area before getting to the heater core. And when I removed the heater core, there was a soft rubber gasket on one side only of its ends. Should there be one on both sides? Anyone with experience here and some photos will be of help.
On the issue of NOS I will still visit the supplier and I told him to bring everything Mopar related out for me to see and photograph, and will tell you about it in case anyone is interested.
Cheers
