Do you think my friends will believe me when I say the extra inch where the fender meats the quarter panel was a design feature? ? IDK if they will believe you but that is how they were built. The rocker stainless hides the difference 1 Quote

They are out there I'll add that to the list actually...its a long list and those can be price so it will be at the bottom of the list for now. I've seen pictures where others don't have the trim but have more consistent bottom profile. Is that a modification then? Quote
NickPickToo Posted September 27, 2020 Author Report Posted September 27, 2020 (edited) Ha. Dad just reminded me that the Plymouth Dr. Comped us one a while back. So I just need to find the other side. I also have just one of these door decoration. I'm pretty sure a few small pieces of the grill stainless are missing to but it's been too long now to remember.

casper50 Posted September 28, 2020 Report Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) Nick if that door trim was used on Dodges as well I believe I have a couple. I'll take a look and compare. Just checked the Dodge trim is different. Sorry. You're welcome to them if you want them. Edited September 28, 2020 by casper50 Quote
hkestes41 Posted September 28, 2020 Report Posted September 28, 2020 Nick There are a couple of ads on the HAMB for trim parts left over from P15 build. Trim Pieces ad. Trim Piece Ad #2 I would say contact the sellers, tell them your story and they may cut you a good deal. Quote

Thank you for the offer, but I just double checked and I don't need these anyway. No place to hang them in a Deluxe, they were for Special Deluxe. The one I have was extra stuff that come in the glove box so I'll use it for trade Quote
9 foot box Posted September 29, 2020 Report Posted September 29, 2020 I should get out more. There are a number of parts that I’m interested in, thank’s hkestes41. Quote
NickPick'sCrew Posted October 1, 2020 Report Posted October 1, 2020 (edited) Tomorrow is Cowboy day at Nicholas's school. I think he's passable, but he wont be happy I posted this ?. The hat is a Resistol (20X White Gold) his Grandpa gave to me a few years back. The bolo was his Great Grandpa's. One he often wore while calling square dances. The boots are an old pair of mine.

Bobby Posted October 1, 2020 Report Posted October 1, 2020 Yeeee Hawwwww He kinda has a Lester Flat/Earl Scruggs vibe going on... Throw in the '47 Special Deluxe and we could have a renaissance man here! Hope he has a good time Quote

I have a couple of the inner door trim pieces from my 48 Special Deluxe if you need one. Identical to the one you posted Quote

NickPick'sCrew Posted October 3, 2020 Report Posted October 3, 2020 Okay bragging again. Today Nicholas ran the 5K in 17:08 (lingered at the finish to congratulate his competition so he officially recorded a 17:14. Its all automated these days) Get this, he was disappointed with the time, thinking he should have broken 17. About 4 more weeks left in the season, perhaps he may, although todays course was about as fast (flat) as they come. Quote
Dan Hiebert Posted October 3, 2020 Report Posted October 3, 2020 That's excellent. Both my kids ran CC, our daughter went to college at Eastern New Mexico on scholarship for it. My son ran CC for Port Huron South HS in '05 and '06. He did relatively well for the team, but Nick's times would pretty much have smoked him. I don't think the courses change much from year to year, so I'm sure I've trod the same ground as you, watching the young'un run. Quote
hkestes41 Posted October 5, 2020 Report Posted October 5, 2020 Congrats Nick. Just remember if you ever see me running you better run too because something dangerous is chasing me. Quote
NickPickToo Posted October 14, 2020 Author Report Posted October 14, 2020 The rest of the paint arrived yesterday. Just in time too. Today may be the last day this season with good driveway painting weather. Focused on getting the body (still not ready to paint the fenders fully for now) and on the inside surfaces that will be exposed -- three coats Some of the surfaces seem to have dried nicely, but I'll be sanding and buffing out orange peel for a long time on some of the other sections. Anyway, now I can start building out the interior. 1 Quote
Dryerventwizard Posted October 14, 2020 Report Posted October 14, 2020 Do u have fender welt between the body and fenders Quote

Won't show dents or dirt,and when you get in the car in the summer after it has been parked in the sun for a while,it won't be so hot it will bust your brains out. Quote
