    Huh never really noticed that actually, no not much. I read that it was some weird "climate control" option. No idea though. Plus the car at the junk yard didn't have any extra wiring leading to it.

          Car looks awesome. Did you have to do anything weird to fit a late model valance with diving boards?

          The 61 and the 83 are oriented different so they're not upside down. If they weren't the 61 would kinda look like a 19.

            Thanks! Nope nothing really crazy. You need to cut the front 2 early tow hooks off (paint the raw steel after so it doesn't rust) and wire in the new style fog light pig tails. The air duct tunnels are a little tricky to use because of the horns hanging so low but its possible to use them, whole install is basically a direct fit.

                            It's really nothing to look at, I have it on the highest setting right now! I'm going to get a inch lower all around by next week, I'll take some pics then ;)

                              Well I waxed my car the whole day today! Pretty boring to be honest but I'm pretty surprised with the outcome.

                              I started with the fender, here's a after shot compared to the door. I wish the car had better paint, being in a backyard for about 15 years with mold growing on the paint didn't help much preserving it.
