I have some updates but I haven't uploaded pics. There are some big and small updates in the works. I just have to have everything ready or else I won't start. Its my daily. I would like to get them done before canby. But it doesn't matter. It will look the same. I started to do a slight facelift on my tailights. I sourced the inner chrome trim. But they were for the same side. I also have no tailight gaskets. No wonder it leaked a lot in the trunk. I'm very upset. Because nothing else will do for me exept new proper gaskets. Around 100 bucks. Lame. But that's what I get for a 500 dollar rust bucket shell. Even if I get ahold of the gaskets I have to source another trim ring. So stay tuned. I'm constantly working on the 510.

theres a website of a guy who restored his 510 here in oregon. He used a gasket from something else, i cant remember the site tho. But it almost fit perfectly for the tail light gaskets. Just needed a little trimming. About a 20 dollar fix.

valve cover gaskets from a chevy 4.3 are supposed to work really good for standard sedan taillight gaskets, I think that you have to just punch the holes in them

i think julie coop (BBlist) has a short write up using it.

 

 

i made my own :D

 

EPDM weather strip w/adhesive back for the inner

sheet rubber for the outter

 

total was <$20 (the pix are on the 510realm)

just as promised. updates!. some new some old.

 

i finally installed my chunky afco radiator after i had 90s welded to the end tank. i wanted the radiator to be front and center. not offset. if you want an afco centered and the lower outlet not to hit the alternator pulley. the 90s are a must!
