Does anyone have a line on a replacement Heater/fan script panel?
I was told that there was a custom graphics shop that can do that but I am waiting for the information to be emailed to me.
This one has the wood grain; mine has just the silver finish.
Love the black interior!

A sedan like this?  I've posted this photo before, it's about 2 miles from my house, and you never know, some of its parts may end on one of my cars.

Clint, do you have a manual trans pedal set for this car?

I see a Manitoba CP member Howmac has some manual stuff for sale over on Ch*vytalk in the classifieds.

Dave Plummer had a graphics shop do a heater control for his 69, it cost him dearly.   69's instrument cluster had the brushed aluminum finish, 70 had the woodgrain (2 versions - "Burled elm" and "Walnut".   I think the "Burled Elm" was only in the Bonneville's)

yup, I bought a pedal set on this site, and had a set from a '67 that could have been modified.   I've bought a few things from Homac as well, and he was kind enough to source me a disc brake pedal cover for a manual trans car.

Maybe I shouldn't have given them such a good scrubbing.  They were basically a set of used rims/tires when I got them. I popped off the old trim rings, filled up the pail with dish soap and gave them a real good scubbing.   The trim rings on it now are the same as on my 2+2's, they give a better look.

I pulled all the wheel opening moldings off yesterday and cleaned them up.  They were all held on by the wrong screws, so luckily I hoarded a bunch of proper screws from the junk-yard up by Bowden AB one day.  I just gave the proper screws a good soaking in CLR, and bit the shine with steel wool, and reattached the moldings.     I've got a couple sets of door edge guards coming from Kurt Kelsey in Iowa, I only needed one set but you never know when you'll need another especially with 4 cars!!!!

What a great looking car Clint. I love gold cars for some strange reason. Really wish I could have seen Rick's convertible before it was red.

The photo's don't show the rust that it has.   While nothing like an Ontario car, there is some deterioration (that has been fixed at least once already) at each wheel opening.

We are glad you fellows out West are saving these old pieces of History biggrin   

all we have here in Ontario are a few old musty rotten shells...  

Maybe we should start  a foundation for the preservation and movement of old car to Ontario.....

Nope, always a painted roof car.    Also power drum brakes. 

 That's interesting.  So was the chrome divider an option on non-vinyl/non-two-tone cars?

Looks great all cleaned up, by the way.

Thanks for posting all the pics!
