    My painter blasted my parts with "sugar sand". It seems to be a really fine grit sand that turns to dust after impact.
    My sheetmetal came out looking like yours and painted really nice. You can read all the numbers stamped in the metal .

    Thanks,

    Special and Century are the same. 1956 Special and Century will fit too (although they look different).

    That's right.

    Special and Century taillights interchange (40 series and 60 series)

    Super and Roadmaster (50series and 70 series) will not fit Special nor Century.
