The southern Illinois deviation to the word is 'ickempucky'. My Dad used that term to describe some kind of substance they used at the implement dealer where he worked when I was a little punk (like Frankie). It was a cross between a lubricant and adhesive. I don't recall what it was used for but my Mother hated the stuff. Stunk to high heaven and was impossible to get out of clothes.

The only real survivor around here is ME....never been re-finished...not even a touchup

This car lasted 40 years and it will now go another 40 with some fresh paint and detailing. This will be a great grocery getter or platfrom for a V8 clone...I may just drive it this summer to save on gas

Now that I a Numbers Guy.....I can get involved....LOL....Here a shot of the rear seat pan in my Gold 70.......No overspray like the green car, just Primer and glue.......Just for future reference........when I bought the new Headliner for the car, I just threw it on the floor in the seat riser area......when the Interior guy came over to Install it, the Red adhesive you see in the pic melted thru the Plastic bag "And" the new Headliner......Just a warning.....that stuff is "Potent"
