did the cornet not have the pattern? or did he paint it? I expect the later since its not faded white.

he put a fair amount in it to fix it up but I think he's a tad bit high with the work to be done. Its a stripper car, manual brakes and manual steering... not even the torque flight.

Needs whitewalls... He has huge tires also... That side door window chrome pitting show kind of how bad it was when he started.

I would do a lot of sniffing for bondo and Im not a fan of the cop car paint job

These are the 15 inch hubcaps(they are thicker outside).

these are the same hubcaps... and the correct tire size, the perfect whitewall stance for a dodge with 15 inch rims and hubcaps...

Location: Victoria, BC, on Vancouver Island, Canada		On 1 59 Windsor I owned once, I glued several 3/8" square hardwood strips on the back of each panel, with the strips running the short way on each panel. It worked. I sold the car so I don't know how long it may have lasted but it certainly did the job.
