Welcome Mike. (good name)

No such thing as a dumb question. Just the one you should've asked.

AAR's are tops. Let's see the pics.

Cool project for sure.
By chance do you have the tags and/or build sheet for it?

Take the back of the rear of the front seats and look inside and under the back seat if you haven't already. Also taped to glove box.

The sheets are usually hiding there.

Get er done.
I bought a 3M product( two tubes of compound) to repair my elastomatic bumper years ago.
Excellant.
Don't know if it is still available.
YES, they reproduce them.

Gene Gregory makes the rubber bumpers.  You can find them on e-bay sometimes where his daughter creates the auctions.



I bought one.  Nice piece; just needs a little finishing.

Better get one before he decides to retire.  I hear his health not doing so good lately.
