My buddy helped me take the fuel door and filler tube off a 95 suburban and mount it on the back driver side were the previous owner bastardized it with a square hole, just big enough to get the cap on. We also pulled the back tailgate cross brace off and repaired where they had welded on a retainer to cover the wood. I'll get some better pics a bit later.

I got the cover from classic industries. I've been work on a guys 62 impala and had him buy it for me for payment for the work. Fit good. I didn't do to bad for my first time doing a cover. i didn't trim my filler close enough and that is the bulge on the drivers side top. But i'll get it better. I did find out the seat is not a 64 seat. had a tag on the frame on it that said May 19, 1961.

For sure Lugnutz. I got the glass and vent window out of the passenger door. Getting ready to strip the drivers door now.

Installed a quick fuel 450 carb. 283 is much happier moving down from the tired Holley 600.

How did you strip the pint? Did you sand or chemical strip? Funny I was standing my doors yesterday because I'm gonna get resdy to paint them Krylon Champaign Nuevuoe to imitate the light fawn, while I was standing, I was thinking, this is going to take way too long.

Not sure about lugnutz, but I used a paint and rust stripper in my drill for 95% of it. Sandblaster. For the tight spots.

Flat areas strip best with a 4.5" grinder and a HF poly carbide disc. This fender outer surface took about 45 minutes. Wear a dust mask and always watch the direction of disc rotation when coming to an edge. Smaller areas need a tighter radius so I use a wire wheel on a drill for that. Inside the window channels is best done with media blasting if you can.
I do NOT use chemical strippers for fear that any residue will prevent primer from bonding to the metal. Besides that, chemical strippers are expensive, caustic, and messy.

Worked on installing new bearings in the Cad 500. The thrust went out due to a high pressure transmission problem, which caused issues with the cam bearings.

Sorry about the sideways photo's, not sure why some do this and others don't, they're oriented correctly when I upload.
