That looks really nice 67. I hear you on those door handles. Sketchy stuff riveting those handles in.Did a few small things today. Installed the door locks and handles. Talk about pucker factor, we double and triple taped that area around the door with blue tape. Then taped some shower towels to that with duct tape. I still wasn’t prepared or comfortable with the amount of force it took to river the door handles to the door. But we did it with out incident.
We then installed the fenders in preparation to cut and buff. That simple act has revealed to us how the completed car will look. I can’t put it into words how it looks and the pictures dont do it justice. Needless to say, we are beyond excited.

Yes! A pneumatic riveter is soooo much easier.Yes it was. I’m going to have to do it one more time on my car. Is there an easier way, like a pneumatic rivet gun?

Yes sir Todd. You don’t have to worry about the snap back when it finishes pulling the rivet that way.Okay. I think harbor freight has one. Will that fit the bill?
Who is "we"? i.e. " We did this, We like that" ......Does the Queen live with you?
Wait,...Don't tell me, I'll bet............We are not amused.
You're getting paid to do this stuff then?
We = me + the car owner.

Tell me about it. I can’t even pain the trunk deck w/o screwing it up.No, I’m not getting paid. I don have the experience or skills to even about think charging for this. This is my second complete paint job and first metallic. It’s not perfect but good enough all things considered. I’ve pretty much only learned what not to do.
I’m in Huntsville.
