Swapped the 87 Regal header and new bumper fillers on to my 83 last night. Everything to my surprise lined up really well.

Continued the paint stripping. Right fender and most of the right quarter have the paint off. There's some hammer and dolly work needed near the back on and just above the body line, and one small rust spot on the wheelwell lip, not too shabby for a New York car. Probably worse than that is how the rust is all over the roof and decklid, how far it crept under that cracked factory laquer.

Found the reason why my brights wouldn't switch on and off, the arm on the wiper switch broke. So, I found that they make/sell new ones, but I refuse to pay $130 for a stupid part like that.

I must find one by other means. However... if any of you fine gents has one for an '85 model coupe with tilt and delay wipers (and cruise if it matters), hit me up. :D

Went to work and approved a bunch of payments but killer a**ed tooth ache. That's what I get from going to dentist the other day. After chilling a bit and medicating I put some finishing touches on my amp and blue tooth install. Now need to vacuum carpet, put seats and console back in. Be glad to get it driving and parked in barn out of my garage
