1971 Olds Custom Cruiser Restoration

What a terrific video. Your Olds looks incredible.

 

That's really a nice car!

 

Awesome restoration! As a woodgrain diner freak, I wanted to know where you sourced your replacement product: it looks high quality and I can tell it is the original pattern of what was on the wagon from the factory?

 

dinoc not diner!

 

Hi 90 merc,

Thanks for the email. I'm sorry for the delayed response... I sweated over this part of the restoration, not sure what the solution would be to replace the siding--until I found a 90-inch long original piece of dinoc on Ebay. I had it digitally photographed, then had a graphics shop clean up the imperfections and tweak the color to get the best match possible before printing it on 3M control tac.

...Now, if I can only find original dinoc for a '96 Roadmaster wagon.
