When installing the trim, especially on the roof, I wrapped each fastener with cord seal and used a 10-24 nut with a rubber seal to prevent water from entering the car.

Trying to make room…..Installed all of the roof clips tonight. Still have to massage the trim so it lays flat on roof. Then seal all of the moulding clips where they go through the roof, then nut them

Drove 8.5 hrs after work last night to Troy Michigan to meet up with Jim Pickard and Joe Tonietto. Buying a/c parts from Jim that he has been saving for me. Joe is making his 58’ wagon available for me to take pictures of assembly of the front end and engine compartment.
Looking forward to a Buickfull day with these guys!
Cannot wait to see their cars. Wagon heaven
