70 Challenger SE

[Timbbuc2]

I found my car on ebay June 2016, watched it for the complete auction but I didnt buy it at that time. It seemed like the perfect match for me because it was already painted FC7 with many new parts included. This car had went through 2 owners that had experienced the ultimate deal breaker "Divorce" I was on Craigslist one day and saw the same car, so I contacted this guy in Georgia, long story short we came to a deal, about 15k less . My wife and I have always wanted a 70 ebody and now we have one. Non matching numbers ,no build sheet but I have the correct fender tag. So I will be posting pictures of my progress.
First picture is the day I saw the car for the first time, Has a N96 hood but I am changing that, I found the original hood.

 question
My painted back glass insert has a several of the screw pegs damaged where the interior panel screw too. Any ideas how to repair it. I dont have any pictures, I was thinking about installing the screws and coating them in wax and then putting JB Weld to form it back to spec. What ya think?

My Shaker Hood has the crush panels so I take it , it is not a original. This will be on the for sale list soon.

I'm not completely understanding what area you are referring to.  If you can snap a quick photo I'm sure we can come up with an easy and simple solution.

They did make 71 Shakers so it's not completely out of the question.  But the odds are small.

I am not home at the moment, this is a SE car with the insert for the small back window. The insert has tabs on the inside to screw the interior trim panel . Some of these tabs are damaged and the car is already painted. Dont want to mess with replacing it. Any ideas?

[Cuda Cody]

Since it's already painter, looks like your only option is to use some type of 2 part epoxy (like JB weld).  There's a lot of options out there and you might look in to Lords Adhesives too.  They make a bunch of high quality adhesives for car panels.  Good luck!

Thanks Cody

I believe the SE window insert is fiberglass. I'd recommend repairing the tabs with fiberglass.
