The Copper SFury Convertiable is almost complete

Post by Mark Evans »

After a 6 week delay from from my Back operations I have only the Power Window harness and the rugs and door panels left to go.
What's 6 weeks when its a 10 year project !
These are the latest photos with the Top on.

Mark that is awesome

Im hoping mine turns out half as good as yours

How have you managed to get the front grille looking so immaculate

All the ones I have are dull and I have even tried re anodizing but with not much success

Great work
Well done

Thanks guys,

I had all of my Anodize done at a Ct Comm. plater. The GM and I hit it off ,he was car guy just by luck. It took many rejects and redos to make it right.
First mistake was mine ,I did not clean and sand, and buff out the defects. But he did get it right . He left the company and they will not take any more car parts.
If anybody has any sources ,It would be a good subject to post.

I removed the interior this morning and I will be posting the photos of the side panel light hole later.

What are you looking for?

My best source for 1959 parts including Conv items is ;
Benny Buckner in West Va., You can find photos of his place on this site ,just search for him.I have posted some photos
Best way to reach him is by Phone during the Day 304-920-1422, his email is bennyb@frontiernet.net
Cheers , Mark

Vic,
I assumed that you already knew about BIG M and John from the forum ,You should try him if you have not already
He was my major source for all kinds of parts ,I would have never completed it without his advice and many shipments.
Also all the great people on the forum, Thanks to you

John
Thanks for the kind words
Time to go have some fun and drive her
Mark
