            Installed new door handles today, as well as just installing the mirrors, dew wipes and key cylinder so I can drive the car and not have it broken into easily. Also installed the color matched rear license plate bucket....Looks pretty nice...gonna be a tough choice between the chrome bucket and my current one.

            Also broke down a purchased a new radio..as my current DEHP4000UB is fried...literally. It smokes. So I purchased a new pioneer (because I love their radios) model DEHP4200UB. Will probably install it when I get some free time. I could do it now but I just want a break from car stuff.

            OH also polished out the wheel well trims as well as taking a Brillo pad to the underside of them to clean them up real good. They are sweet looking now.

                BBQ sauce? lol

                I ended up installing the radio. Very nice piece of equipment. I am happy I get my tunes back.

                One gripe about pioneer radios..they have detachable face plates yet they do not provide a case to hold the face plate in. Luckily I have collected quite a few radio's in my day to have some spare radio face plate cases so my radio can be kept safe.

                    I can get one...but what is the difference? They install the exact same way stick ones do. I just used nylocks and stainless hardware.

                        This is what I have to install.

















                        Everything is in pretty good shape. The worst looking pieces are the hood trim, and windshield surrounds with some dullness like the ditch light bezels.

                        No need for nos though as there will be many eye catching things on this car.

                              Yes. 81 and older grille I purchased from Pete (85crownHPP a while back).

                              Unfortunately they are never done.
