The fenders are in the rebuild stages 

New hand made bottoms just like the Converible, four years ago.

Old parts were heavily patched.

And Just like the convertible, all the rails and inner pieces came off the outer metal becuse of the rust between the pieces 

The fenders below are from 4 years ago,

The Ontario fenders on the Converible were in better shape than the B.C. fenders that came with the 2+2.

The convertibles do lead easier lives

Certainly not my first choice of colours!

Seriously, looking good.

The California based instrument cluster with warning lights, arrived today.

Not as clean as I thought it would be but that's no challenge.

I pulled it apart along with a spare common one.

Cleaned up the face and the lens.

The speed warning shaft hole allows a lot of dust in.

I was very impressed with the warning nob. Cast metal with an allen key set screw !

The outer frame had moister damage with rust stains bleading in on the inner panel.

Used the panels off the BC unit sent to me by Jerel.

The clean outer panel (not seen) got a light coat of Tremclad to prevent future rust.

Interesting to see these together.

I found out what is probably wrong with the cluster on the white car.

The two plastic layers on the wire sheet have come apart on this one causing the wires to cross.

I will be digging out my other clusters and looking for two good sheets.

They are amaizingly identical.

If not, I will be carefully reparing this.

The nice part about the lenes is the only difference is a drilled hole.

I will be seeking out my best lens and using it.

The circuit boards are the same as 1970, I might have a spare one.

 Soon, my winter guest, 1967 Grand Prix, will be going home and I will have access to the boxes with clusters from Mark, Howard and Jerel.

I will let you know.

Thanks

The last dirty job !

The differential will be heading off soon to be cleaned up.

That carrier just will not come out.

Decided to stop for the day.

I used my cherry picker and lifted it up with a strap so both sides of the differential were just off the jack stands.

The gently tapped on the housing and it popped out.

Two spacers on one side and one spacer on the other.

A man without a steel plate in his arm, may have been able to remove it the traditional way

 Good stuff.  Now imagine how much fun it will be putting it back in.
