Its some ole school tool they used on these old metal bumpers to tweak them.
They actually fit real nice. Today i hope to get the front fender extensions and front bumper on.

My buddy blew me off yesterday. He keeps dancing around getting the doors buttoned up. Adjusting the glass and installing the lock mechanisms seems like it might be scaring him.
I heard of a guy local with a parts car. Iam going to try and find him and get some pictures for refereance.

I would think back to 70 ,Id be interested in seeing those pics as I need to go into my driver side door and repair the opening mechanizm or rod .It is very difficult to open my door from inside ,I assume a rod is stretched or something easy.

I'm with flash, to at least 1970. Possibly 68' & 69' too since 68'-72' share many similarities.

Thanks. I am also in need of some unique parts.
#1- A clip to hold the lock cylinder in trunk lid.
#2- The part the antenna wire pigtail plugs into. Its mount on the cowl. Bottom center of windshield.
#3 - Some wiper arms in good shape

I think I got my trunk lock clip from Hinshaws used but they may reproduce it now and the other parts Im not sure about .For my 72 Chevy truck Napa had wiper arms and blades in stock so you might try them as well .Roger Ausley may also have what you need and he is also great to deal with and in your state .
