Previous owner converted to bolt in door glass.
Is there a distinguishable difference in judging for concours?
69 Gt 500 June 69 build date

Thanks Bob appreciate the help. I started stripping the black off of the buckets and found the following.
Black paint sprayed over the gray.
Questions about paint.
1) would the mounting area of the bucket have any paint at all, weren't they installed prior to the front clip being painted?
2) shouldn't body color be evident prior to the gray being painted?

I am finding that the bkack was sparayed over the gray(po preference) but there in no body color under the gray.

Is the galvanized bucket that is mounted to the core support, mounted to the front or the back of the support. I have seen it both ways and want to be sure. I know the bolts come in from behind but need to determine if the j nuts are on the core support or the galvanized metal?

Pete

Purchased original headlight buckets
Couple of questions
Right side headlight bucket has 2 slotted holes
1) radiator support hole
2) lower stone guard mount
Left side
1) jagged edge to radistor support

In judging should I repair these areas or leave be?
I know its an owner preference but want to make sure it is correct.

Looking for advice on side rollbar covers. I saw Branda makes a set but am asking to see if anyone has used them or have a better alternative? Mine are not original but have seen better days.

Jeff,
Do you know or can you tell.what is retained in that clip?

Pete

I have noticed on the 69-70 GT 500 that the passenger side shock tower has a hole for some type of wiring harness clip. Trying to determine what type of clip would go there or if the ones I have seen are incorrect and there isn't suppose to be a clip. Any input would be appreciated.

I posted in "Want to buy" I needed to buy gage pods for console gages. After posting Bob stated that Jeff had done a DYI on the pods. I wanted to give a shout out to both and post some pictures of how it came  out. Origonal on the right, mine on the left. Thanks again to the both of you.

Pete

Thanks Ed, see you then.
