Will add more later/soon

The metal hose in the upper section is the vent hose for related to the retrofitting of some of the cars

Nice detail Jeff, thanks for sharing.
-
Your welcome -
Also take note of where the side stripe tape was pulled into the marker light holes rather than neatly cut off at the edges
Anyone else find a anti-rattle "pad" between the vent hose and the upper quarter panel?
-
I don't remember seeing that pad before. It must not have been needed often. I went back and reviewed the instruction TSB sheet sent to the dealers and nothing was illustrated or discussed which leads me to believe (my opinion) it must be a "as needed" item . Bob

Thanks Bob - just something that turn up in the pictures when I "developed" them ;)

Is the taillight protector hardware the same as sold by AMK?

"Taillight protector hardware"? Not sure what your referring to. Sorry its been a long drive and a long day

Hi Jeff, referring to the bolts that attach the grey cardboard taillight protectors to the inner trunk.

Hi Jeff, referring to the bolts that attach the grey cardboard taillight protectors to the inner trunk.
I don't know what AMK sells but the nuts are the same as the end cap nuts and a zinc phosphate or plated silver and carriage bolt (believe 1 inch 1/4 20) that fits in the slot in the tail panel . There are two self tapping screws similar to the ones that hold the tail panel on that hold down the cardboard taillight protectors on ether side of the trunk lid latch support structure. There will be holes where they had been installed before. Bob

Labeling some more of the tens of thousands I've collected this year and thought I would post some additional ones of this particular car.
Hope these help others
One more of the trunk and the back of the non-fold down/ Take note of the poor exterior paint coverage in some areas

Nice shot of truck tailight covers. Is the tailight cover slotted or is there a clean hole for the 2 bolts to go thru the covers and the nuts attached? Could not make that out from the pictures. Thanks Lu

Blew the passenger side and it has material over the nut so no slot to the outer edge. Would guess (what I'm doing) is a slightly oversized hole that is smaller than the nut/washer
