Gotta catch up on what's happening in the garage. Due to adding to the blimish on the passenger's side of the nose ( bumper cover ) last week in an accident in Moss Bluff , La. Someone came off a side street into traffic and force a young lady into my lane and I could not miss her but almost had the car slowed down enuff to miss her when contact was made.
Leading to this damage.
So, being as I've been wanting to pull the nose section off to deal with the blimish that came with the car when I bought it. We went in the attack mode.
So , the gathering of intel on parts and stuff to repair and lots of You Tube and Vette forum reading followed.
As usual on these cars problem with the Daytime run lights, things get overheated
So ordered new light sockets, LED bulbs and resistor to the tune of about 110 bucks.
Next fixing a broken light tab on the nose that the spot light and sig/dtr lights bolted to.
Not going to look really pertty but gonna get the job done.
Then accessing other damaged areas.
And after yesterdays application of epoxsy.
Found the headlight cover just too bad to attempt repair so have one coming from a slavage yard for 104 bucks. Need to sand it down but all is intact even though it came off a vette that had caught fire. No warping and just a bit of paint peeling on it. But no matter as I have to sand down everything and paint it anyhow.
To be continued as the project goes.
