looks like an inspection cover/access but I don’t know for sure. Is there a cover for this? Do they sell them? Does anybody have a picture of one so I can fab one up? It’s on my 70 Satellite…front passenger wheel well. Thanks MF

So I installed my rear quarter glass a few months ago and am still trying to figure out if I did something wrong on the installation. The issue: The glass on both sides are canted on inwards quite a bit as seen by the photo. I can push them out but I can tell it’s just not right. I did try...

After way too much work of trying to get my door windows in, I am stuck. I have ideas to solve but they are not great. The problem: the new mylar inserts appear to jam in the wing channel or are very tight. Thus the windows jam up or are very tight. What Ive done: I wire brushed the channel...

Of course my lens will no longer snap in as the plastic tangs are long gone. How do you guys suggest I attach them. Currently using 3M double sided tape. Just not sure about longevity.

Working with old beat up cars is fun! So are 50 year old collision fixes. I’ve made modifications to my front bumper bracket to give me more adjustment range in and that worked fine. However I need to laterally adjust the bumper to the left (driver side) (see picture for reference) about an...

I’ve noticed a very large spread for pricing on windshield gaskets like $100-$450. Is there really a difference? If so what? Are there that many mfgrs making them or is there gouging or what? Recommendations as to what and where to buy from would be helpful. Yes I’ve read the other posts on...

Can anyone show me how the factory painted the inner lower plastic grill? Some pictures looks like the inner lip is silver and the vents behind the lip is black? Thanks ps mine here is all black.

Have searched and read and even posted on some existing threads here but needed to start another unfortunately. What specific urethane is used and where specifically is it applied? Sealant or adhesive? Flexibility? Application: 1970 Belvedere Sport Satellite Thanks. More questions will follow.

Do you guys have a way to determine a Chrome piece of trim vs a polished Stainless? Are there general part delineations of what was typically used where? Asking because the polishing methods are very different. Thanks MF

Wasn’t able to delete this

I am wondering if I am nuts because I can’t yell if I am effing up the chrome on my buffer or it if the imperfections were there all along. I think I am causing it. Below is a shot of the handle. You can see an area on the left that’s scratched up. I don’t think it was there before. Also a...

I am interested in putting a new glass mirror my driver side remote mirror on my 1970 Sport Satellite. Can someone point me to a thread on how to remove the glass and replace it? Who sells just the glass for these? Thank you MF

Anyone know what they make the rear glass with? Is it layered, tempered or safety? I am referring to new reproduction glass. I am trying to determine the type I have as I might want to grind about an 1/8” for more clearance in a small area. Here is a picture if that helps. If it’s tempered I...

Getting ready to reassemble my doors. Was planning on the door hardware prior to window mechanism. Does that sound correct?

Guys need your expertise and experience on attaching my chrome trim to the rear window clips. Because I replaced my roof skin I needed to drill new holes which I am in the process of doing. I am trying to test fit my first clip but the trim will not fit unless the screw is loosened up. I know...

Rumor has it that there maybe a diagram showing some measurements of the window trim clip locations on both windshield and rear glass? During roof skin replacement AND sail quarter fab I have lost much of the clip locations to mig welds. Wondering how to get the locations back AND the best...

Are the lock cylinders worth re-keying? Can we do this? The new aftermarket ones are not expensive but any good?

Any hints/tricks on how to thread these nuts on the posts without breaking them? I ordered new nuts as mine seem way to tight. It’s almost like they are dull and aren’t cutting in at all. Just curious what you guys do when twisting your nuts lol.

I was expecting all the large plugs to be the same. Not the case. There are 11 heavy rubber plugs, 3 heavy rubber plugs with fill (see picture ) and 4 thin plastic plugs. Couldn’t find any pertinent info on where these specific plugs go. Anybody decode this before have any inputs for me...

I assume this piece is called the ‘Roof Rail Weatherstrip’ as denoted in the FSM fig. 18 chapter 23-15. Does anyone know what type and size of screw was used. The FSM is not clear…. Thanks MF
