Oops. Sorry Mario🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I’ve used clear gorilla glue on things like this and it worked very well. Read the instructions.

Mario, welcome to the forum. whatever you decide, do your research, have a plan and take it one step at a time and have fun . These are very complex cars. That said, $30-40k would get you a nice riv that you could enjoy immediately. Life is short. Best of luck and keep posting your progress. Brian

We were honored to be invited to the Dayton Concours d’ Elegance this past Sunday. Completely floored to win second in class against some really nice cars. Pretty exciting day for us.

Thanks man😎

Congrats and welcome. Great car. Brian

Oh man that’s a bummer Ken. 😕

Correct, they should open with the key on or off, car running or not. They should close when the light switch is pushed in to turn off the lights, *when the key is on* If you happen to shut the car off with the lights on, they will/should close the next time the key is turned on. Hope this helps Brian

He’s got a 63 with a dynaflow, I’m not positive, but I’d bet they are different than the 64 st 400 lines Ed ordered. Call them directly and confirm for a 63 👍

Had the riv on the lift and could actually see the rocker moldings 😁

Looks great Bob👍👍

Rivnik, I did mine last winter, this was my process. I stripped them completely, straightened any dings, sanded the top face of the ribs all the way to 2000 grit to make the polishing easier. Polished to a mirror shine with a wheel mounted in my cordless drill and Mother’s aluminum polish. Cleaned, taped with fine line, used a self etch primer and paint. As turbinator stated, I pulled the tape when still wet. They were a lot of work and turned out beautiful. That said, your correct, they do face downward and you don’t see them that much. Haha. But I know they’re right and kept me busy last winter 😁 good luck and have fun, hope this helps. Brian

Thanks Tom, I couldn’t help but stop and grab the picture under the lights. 😎

When your walking to the car and have to stop and take a picture. ✨😁✨ you know you all have done it, haha

I used an oil finish on mine. No clear, I hit them with some feed and wax once or twice a year. Still need to get them striped.

I agree. 😁

Man that’s rough. But loaded. Power vents, silver deluxe leather, I bet it was stunning when it was new. Those wildcat center caps too…..

I run 215/75/15 on my 65. Generally considered close to original size. Hope that helps Brian

LOVE the redlines 👍

Absolutely 👍

Yes, they had a grey, cast look, center with a brushed finish rim. I like ‘em. pretty positive they are American Racing Salt Flat wheels or similar

Ed, sorry to hear you’ve been down but glad your on the mend. 👍
