Couple a more pieces cleaned & painted, ebay slap sticks & ebrake assembly, actually were pretty decent, ebrake was new,no sign of wear or mounting but had a tiny bit of surface rust, why 2 slapsticks, well I needed one for the 74, got snipped on about 10, so I bid on two in a row & won em both! might need the other for the 73 anyway, or just have a spare!
the other junk is the oil pan bolts & the dip tube for the tranny!

Livin' my life...one gas station at a time.
I've been looking for a T-handle type slap stick shifter for a while. My 72 has the first year only round top shifter in it now (which I don't like 
). If you ever feel like getting rid of one of em, let me know.

I'll let ya know in the spring, I found out on the hood hinges where not to por15 anymore(an 8' 2x4 bolted on couldn't budge em) but the 73's slapstick was already done, so it may be useless, or a least take a couple a days soaking in paint stripper to get it to move again:shifty: Rich.

Ok, so they ain't that good, pics make em look new, anyway the main question I have is, is there any kind of coating? sealer? for rubber that I can sand out the defects & get the shine back, I took the worst set of fronts & sanded one out(will get the last few spots out if I get a positive ans.) here's test 2!
