Thanks guys.
What I can't get over is how much things cost today. My license plate light lens was in bad shape: This little piece of plastic cost almost $30. Add in the light bulb and the little rubber bumpers for the license plate holders, plastic nuts and screws and this little project is at $65. That doesn't include my time or materials for sandblasting and painting the metal. 1968 Coronet R/T

Looks great, shame to cover it with a battery.
You're not kidding about parts being expensive, especially Mopars although I'm finding out British cars are probably worse. I'm finding basic supplies have gone through the roof and it sure doesn't help being in Canada with our dollar sinking like a stone. Rob

It takes a long time when you have to complete other people's projects in order to help pay for yours. LOL These were all done in that same time period. Plus a couple of Harley Fenders and repairs. 2000 Dodge Dakota Ford Semi 1969 Chevy C-10 1968 Coronet R/T
