RobertKB Posted November 8, 2010 Report Posted November 8, 2010 Getting the old Dodge D25 Club Coupe back together one piece at a time after its repaint. Figured I would start at the back and work forward. I have had a rechromed set of bumpers for it that I have had for years which I have been saving until I got the car repainted. They came with a parts car I bought probably 20 years ago. Back bumper is finally on. It is very dusty and needs a good clean. The bumper guards were on the car before and I just had them rechromed. All bumper bolts are new and run horizontal as it appears the D25's came that way. I had a thread about them a couple of weeks ago. It is nice to get it back together and know I will once again be driving it by next spring. I drove this car for 30 years with a bad paint job but now it is time for it to be more than a 20 footer.

RobertKB Posted November 9, 2010 Author Report Posted November 9, 2010 looks like your making progress. neat shop:) it almost looks like it's the same size as mine? i got a 24x36. -Benny Pretty close. Mine is 22' X 36'. It would be nice to have the extra two feet width. Plus a little more length. Are garages ever big enough?? There is a fourth car in there you cannot see, a 1941 Canadian Plymouth based Dodge D21 in need of quite a bit of work. It is pretty crowded right now in the garage but the '41 will go to a new home at some point if the right buyer comes along. Quote
