Mirror code is G34. The A66 deleted the wheel lip moldings and the A63 and A91 packages did not include them. So no wheel lip moldings. Sill and bumper guards were included in one of the packages.

The lower edges of the dash pad look awful black. I noticed that in the text you sent me.

The darkness in the lower areas of the dash are just due to the lighting or shading.

Most of the interior is in. Hopefully paint will be finished this Spring some time. Still waiting on machine shop to get the engine done.

Also got some work done in the engine compartment. The blower motor has the original plating on it.

Nice work


...just an FYI, a gel cell battery can save your paint when a voltage regulator goes bad. I know

Nice car and find. A previous owner did a lot of work on that car, too bad it was all in the wrong direction. I thought those were 'vette wheels in that first pic! Love to see it when it's done.

Hi Bob, how ya doing?

How is the project coming along?

I have a WSS 340, 4 speed car with factory AC.

Could you please help me understand what the difference is between the two different versions of the WSS decals are? There are two different styles of script for the word "Western" that were placed on the Dart and Challenger. I have one type, but haven't put it on the car yet because I am not sure it is the correct one.

Thanks for your help.

Finally got the car back from paint. I can't seem to find a paint and body guy that can get anything done in a reasonable amount of time. This car was as easy as it gets in terms of getting something done, I mean no rust and just lite body work needed. I mean even the guy that did the work said it was an easy car. Hopefully I can get it up and running before we get into winter. I am happy with the results, the car is straight and the paint looks good.

Nice job, and too cool..... an A66 WSS, I bet I'll never see another one of these.

Hey wait, I do know where there is a MINT sublime A66 hiding in a a garage in Southern NM. How do you tell if it's a WSS?
