I have a fish story

I finally got the window trim done, I did not use the factory stuff, mainly because I like the look of the rubber trim ,it came out nice on the front , but the back required small slits to accommodate the radius, all in all it came out great and I can live with it.
I also perfected the badge resto, I found some on E bay, and they are very hard to find ,I got lucky, and have some extras now. Lisa does not like it on the fender, and I agree I am not in to labels, I taped it on to see what it looked like ,looks ok ,and on the key hider it is cool there but we like the clean look.

Satin Black would be my choice, but its good to be different & as per original.
Not sure about the badge on the front fender, then again, I have never seen a GC car before you showed yours.
Windows look great, paint is so nice & shiney its hard to see

It is from a dodge Dakota , not sure what year, but I am having second thoughts on the rear, the front screen looks great the cuts are ugly and I will lost likely change it our with the factory stuff, I have it but it has hail damage and will require some work,so I learned alot, but might change itBlue wrote:I like the argent rear panel! I really like that rubber screen trim, where did you get that from? Wouldn't mind doing the Valiant like that.
Finally got the GC rocker molding on, makes the car look a bit different.
I had to search for the nylon clips, and modified them, and also used jack nuts for the ends.
