Today's activities:
Out with my old, pecky fender emblems and in with the nice-but-not-perfect ones I bought off CL for $100. The V8 emblems are reproductions and I mounted them based on a Factory Assy. Manual diagram Ogre posted, thanks ,Ogre!
Then I began working on my seat replacement. Factory seat was held in with only two bolts total! I also found out the gas tank hold down straps are not connected in the front at all - DOH!
"New-to-me-seat" - It had some 4" long mounting studs rusted solid under it - what a PITA. Gibbs oil, double nutting & a long box end wrench cured that. I was lucky not to snap them though.
Under the seat I found THIS:
This whole sliding mechanism unbolts so I'm debating if I should have it sandblasted? I decided to spray it w/ Ospho and leave it overnight to see if I kill the rust. If I do I will spray with Rustoleum's rust arrester and leave it. Opinions?
