All hardware was removed, cleaned, and reused, unless matching stainless hardware was available (clutch-head screws were used where appropriate).

The rear-door seals from Jim Carter were the wrong shape and thus installation was messy and the appearance is ugly. These will be replaced someday (Steele Rubber has seals with the correct profile).

The side-door seals from Chevy Duty installed cleanly and seal very well.

The side door seal is one continuous piece that joins under the lower seal retainer.

One of the last pieces to be installed was the single tail/brake/license light assembly. NOS, optional rear turn-signal "bullets" were also installed on each side.

This is the original location of the factory antenna (it must be 10 feet long) - it does not touch the hood (or the windshield visor, if installed).

One edge of the antenna base (and seal) ride-up on the cowl "ribbon". There is a factory hole on the side-wall under the dash for attachmenbt of the lower base of the antenna.
