Finally got the Dakota Digital control box mounted and the switch bezel lettering repainted.
What did you do to your Mopar today?

Your lettering look really good. I tried to do mine on my e body but I could never get it good enough to suit me so I ended up sending it out.
Picking away at the to-do list, the front brakes are done…

Temp up to 50 today and partly sunny so got the Bel out of the garage and drove it around town for first time since October. Stopped at the Mopar dealer for a photo or two . .

Nice!!! Maybe stop buying trim and get her some new jeans!! 
one technique I have found that works great for painting the lettering is to use the eraser on a #2 pencil.
Use a pencil with a new unused eraser and use it like an ink stamp works like a charm with a little practic.

Good idea, when I done the one on my 68 I hung it upside down so the white paint wouldn’t run downward into the black. It worked great. Gravity is a wonderful thing.

My wife is into crafting/scrapbooking, etc. I used one of her Posca paint pens. Amazon has them; Joggles has them. It was the 0.7mm tip. Afterward, I sprayed the whole bezel with a matte/flat clear to seal it.

Was a beautiful day today so just drove up and down the coast aimlessly until we passed Krispy Kreme then our mission was fulfilled.
Touched up the grille and got it back on the car. I also got the ignition wires on.
My to-do list is getting shorter every day…

Worked on rebuilding door hinges, aligning doors and AMD fenders. It’s a bear, might be over my head and need help with it.

I am glad you took your daughter with you, and especially let her drive! I got my daughter in to cars many years ago, and it has been a very good thing for her.
