I replaced the shifter bushings yesterday, someone had used a rubber bushing, we all know that won't work.



I started working of the 34 year old paint, it looks great to be so old. On the dull areas I put 3 coats of rubbing compound, 3 coats or polishing compound, and then a coat of wax. I also pulled the trim off and re-painted it with Duplicolor trim paint and it looks new, in a few days the whole body will be done. Right now only the front right fender and the hood are finished.
