    Show you that it was available, or show you by doing it?

    Wix, I thought of you when I saw the pix that 1982Caprice posted. Did you see the Roadmaster with the roof cut off of it. Don't be getting any ideas, now!!

    Yesterday, I primed my hood and fenders. Today, I put them the fenders back on and checked the fit.

    Next, I will turn my attention to the tailgate.
    I plan to modify it by adding the lines from the Electra decklid. I like the slight crease and raised area with the nice sharp lines.

    I will be a subtle change, but I think it will be nice.

    David :)
