Hello all, anyone have any tips on how to clean & repair this emblem? Is it copper? Would 2 part epoxy work?

Maybe just the "fuzzies" inside of the door/hardtop weather strip ie: flippers?

On my 56 Exec, I found that 10-153X would not fit. Rubber the right way will send you free samples for comparison
I found them very helpful.

10-136X is a match for the vent window division bar

10-148X is good for the window dust seals on doors & rear 1/4 window on body side

10-209X will work for door & window interior molding locations.

Rebuilt engine is back, I know color may not be exactly correct
Attempted to paint valve covers, not happy with my first effort
NOS fenders welded to inners and primed/painted, into storage

Question for those that have removed the front windshield and back window……..how did you store it?
Standing upright or laying flat, supported in a couple places

Rust repair in trunk under tail lights is now completed, both sides

Moving onto the rusty wheel wells, played around with friends shrinker/stretcher to form pcs. not sure yet if this is how I will proceed.

Question.... how much space is truly between the skirt and the body? I left the welting on when I shaped the pc. and left about a 1/8" clearance. Is this too much?

some more rust areas. in behind the taillights too.
on a positive side, my fabrication and welding is improving

HH56, yes rust is a bear. luckily I found the NOS front fenders. The rockers, front floor pans and A pillar have already been repaired. Do you know what the dust seals near the taillights should appear to be?
