Here is the Paragon listing. It looks like it is in 2 pieces. I never had mine out.

Yup, they're LH and RH, and tongue-and-groove together in the opening.

Hooray! Smilies work now!

Thank's to all who have contributed.

The best I have been able to find so far are a used set, and the owner wants 100$ for them. With the labour involved, plus another 65$ for lenses, and screws, the price will be as high as if they were purchased new.

Unless I find something less expensive, I will probable end up purchasing new ones.

While I'm here, I'll bet nobody can figure what I have been up to today. ?

Absolutely. I've gotta get a bigger garage.

I'll be contacting you in a day or two. We've got stuff to talk about.

Ah, let me guess - you're turning the 63 into an open wheel racer......

Very interesting picture. I see a '63 coupe being turned into a dirt track modified with 6 tail lights and I'm guessing a '67 back up lamp assy, 2 fire extinguishers, a fantastic body dolly, A future project up on a rack, an enclosed pail for greasy rags, a Coke sign with funny words, a burnt out ceiling light, steps for your dog to get up on top of the bolt bin so he can rest his head on the paper towel roll and a rat. This picture is worth more than a thousand words.

Tom, When I posted the picture showing the missing fender, I never realized how much more stuff that is visible in a picture. One thing that set me back was your comment on the rat. Shît I said to myself, where the hell did he see a rat, that I did not see one scurry by. Then I awoke, and realized you were referring to the 572, rather then a furry creature. I have to admit I got admit a laugh out of that one.

What you interpret as being a fantastic dolly, is not really a dolly. They are metal, wheeled support braces, that I fabbed up so that I can raise the body to a height that is comfortable to work on, without having to bend over , or sit down at ground level. I did make a few dolly's that I am rather proud of, and will post some pictures ( 7 ) showing what can be done with a body on it to make our lives easier. Check back with in the next 30 minutes, for my post that I will simply call " Body Dolly "

later

Your mechanical expertise is amazing! Hope those C2 bumpers via Steve B. found a good home. Looks like possible ground frost tonight. The 1967 goes into winter storage in two weeks for six months. Loved your pics from last summer!

Paul,

They are to be used on the 63 SWC that I am in the process of building right now. Ran the furnace this evening for the first time since last March.

I too will have the 65 in storage ( I'm storing it ) starting on October 31st, Five months should be enough time for it to see sunlight once again. Thank's for your kind words

I'm not sure which pics you are referring to. ?

Rat I was wondering if you would catch that right off. It was 42* F when I come home about an hour ago. We are getting close to frost here too. I'm hoping for a warm up again before it cools down for the season. I was thinking about checking out my shop furnace today also. Might be a good idea before I really need it.

Tom
