My recent purchase to part out has an undamaged tinted windshield other than it has some wiper scratches. Has anyone ever tried the kits to polish out the scratches? I'm curious to try one but I don't want to bother wasting $35 if they don't work.

Hey there, I recently purchased a couple of 1965 turn lights on ebay (from American Pontiacs though) and it feels like they don't fit like a glove. Am I missing some brackets which lower the light in this bumper gap? Or American bumper or light is more narrow? The socket also looks different, but I assum...

My 66 Biscayne, the drivers side wiper will ride over the stainless trim at the bottom of the windshield when activated. The right side is fine at the bottom and outside of the sweep.

How's this look? I grabbed it earlier this week, as well as nice drivers & passenger side inner fenders. I wonder is this came from the car that donated the gold door to the 454 Laurentian many years ago. And yes, I got the louvers & 350V emblems as well.

I cannot seem to get the back drivers corner of the hood to sit down. The hinge is as low as it can go on the 3 bolts. I had the springs off the hinges last year, and they are not worn at the pivot pins. Am I working in the wrong direction? What is this voodoo?

So, I just acquired a complete 69 Bonneville drivers taillight assembly and noticed something I never had seen. On the inside of the bezel lip it is painted argent silver. Is this correct or maybe a factory variation or not correct? -- Edited by gtodrive on Sunday 14th of August 2022 05:35:20 AM
