philcas1987 Posted May 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 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. Quote Link to comment

Mesh-71 Posted May 27, 2010 Report Share Posted May 27, 2010 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 Quote Link to comment
