Thanks Mark, and no didn't get the inners done. I did put in door seals and sill plates. Now the doors won't shut without major force. I'm hoping some time in the sun will help with that. I will get the inners done eventually.....you know my pace. Slow and steady

That would be an honor. Not sure it can compete but I guess it just depends on the category.

Re: 1969 Short Wide

Well I got my new bumper in yesterday. I ended up buying one from Southern Kentucky Classics HERE I dealt with Mark, he took it out of the box and checked it good before he shipped it. Same day shipping and reasonable rates.
It is very straight across the top edge. My tailgate functions perfectly without hitting the trim.
