Bill and Mikemee thanks for the tips on that bracket.

Mike G, thanks again as always for those drawings. I will be ordering an FSM as soon as I can figure out who sells them on moparts. Ugh! That's a slug of parts.

I think you're right about the pitting. I have two sets from Texas and though surely a pair would be in good shape... Not so much. And those suckers can't be easy to put in without mucking up the door paint. I think I will start looking. I'm considering new glass too. The stuff I have looks like crap.

Wow! A thousand clams to refinish a pair... and you had to break all the rivets! I think I may be able to find a set locally that are good enough. You know I have always read about the slippery slope... My paint is top shelf. Now none of the old trim and glass parts are good enough to go with it... And this car isn't a rotissory resto. No matter. The wings will look like crap if they aren't extremely nice. Ca-ching... ugh.
