      Mang you don't waste no time getting into the body work on that thing!

      It will look clean without the rear side markers, but I'd check the law. It's a must have for '68+ vehicles here in VA.

        Little late, but did you fuck up the trim removing it? I'll buy it off ya if it's not too bad. I need some spares to refinish and install....I'd also take the markers....

            Shit the trim is in the dump now. There was no decal left on it and where it was it was lifted. I still have the markers though if you want them.

                Whoops sorry. Yeah I am on spring break right now so when I get back next week I will round them up. I will pm you then. You wont happen to want a extra roof rack would you? That is the only other wagon specific thing that is getting tossed on this thing. Marquisman has first dibs on the spoiler but other then that it is all there. Up to you weather you want it or not, not like it is really worth anything anyway.

                      yes they do....
                      starting after 1960 something all motor vehicles have to have some sort of side shining light red in rear and amber up front PLUS a reflector in those areas.
                      If its part of the forward or rear lamp assebly that qualifies as long as it can be seen from the side.

                      Its the same way if you remove your 3rd brake light... fail!!!!!!!

                      Thats how its layed out in the VA state inspection manual (written by the state police) so find a VA state trooper to argue about it with, not me

                          I'm not concerned at all with the no sidemarkers as there are a shit ton of guys with custom cars and trucks here that shave their tails completely and put different ones in the rollpan. Sides are completely shaven. This is why I love NE.


                          83CS I got it off using a heatgun and an induction heater. I mainly used the heatgun as it heated it up faster. Just heat up a section start it with the razorblade and pull. Heat in the direction you are pulling and you should be able to almost get it off in one clean sheet per panel. For the adhesive I have been using 3M adhesive remover. Now that is a bitch. I have only started on the quarter I have been doing the rust repair. Lots of elbow grease there.
