Here are a few pics of the car outside in the sunlight. This was before we adjusting the torsion bars so a little low in the front. Sorted out now.

The shot with the vinyl top shows the body lead seam under the top. The fluorescent lights exemplify this. I am not so sure if this will bug me enough to rip the top off and send the car back to my paint man to smooth that seam out? I simply missed this when the car was at the body shop. I looked at my old pictures and sure enough the same “bulge” is there. I guess I did not notice as much because the top was 48 years old and the car had plenty of other ugly things going on with it. I have looked at several other restored Mopars and this lead seam under the top shows up but it does bug me. I wanted to restore the car as it was in late 68 so that is what it is.
