    You know what? Some kind of electro magnet that collects the chips and then reverse polarity to drop them into a bucket. That would do the trick! ;)

    That's a unique solution. One hiccup maybe getting the outer skin off the wagon doors without damaging the Di-Noc.......Gonna need some Jedi bodyman skills for that.

    Norm, you are on to something!:rofl2:(or maybe just on something)

    Here are a few pics of my tailgate. I have it all welded up, and I'm working
    it to get ready for primer.

    I love that 73. Do I recall correctly that it has a COLD light on the dash? Does yours?


    J~ Might you be thinking of the '66 Impala/Caprice with the COLD light? My grandfather had one and I recall a green COLD light immediately to the right of the left directional in the string of "idiot lights" across the instrument panel.

    the last cold light I remember was my grandparents 63 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 Holiday sedan. Mom's 62 Impala conv had it too. I thought my grandmothers 72 88 Royale had it but I may be recalling the blue brights light

    Yeah, Norm, I know you hold the patent on that amazing contraption, but they had 'em on sale at Harbor Freight. :rofl2: Works like a charm! :29:
