[DeTomaso] Looking for a dipstick, drivers side window vertical trim moulding, etc

[michael at michaelshortt.com]

As far as a dipstick goes, I went to Advance Auto Parts and bought a chrome
handled generic metal dipstick (Mr. Gasket) and the longest flexible spring
type dip stick they had in stock, neither of course was long enough. Cut
the bottom 3.5" off the chrome one and brazed it to the bottom of the
spring dipstick and the measured the balance of the chrome dipstick with
the handle end, cut off the bottom part that was not needed and brazed the
handle end onto the other end of the spring dip stick.

Works like a champ.

     Need the chrome trim piece for the drivers side door inside rear
     vertical.
     Need passenger side door handle bucket , or the set. Would like the
     Billet ones, I heard that they make some that actually follows the
     contour of the body? Scott Bell?
     Thanks, Ed
