    GTS vinyl roof emblem

    Windshield sealer

    "You actually should use both. A butyl strip inside the gasket and pinch weld and a urethane between gasket and glass." Mullinax........ Do you mean to use a strip of butyl tape on the pinch weld all around the windshield before installing the gasket and windshield, or do you cram it into...

    Tips on instalation of a new vinle top

    A warm sunny day is a must. The vinyl is easier to work around the curves when hot & flexible. (yes, I just said "hot & flexible") The most difficult spot for me was the roof/C pillar bend. It will take alot of patience and working the vinyl to smooth it out. Take the time to line up...

    Repairing a dented Swinger 1969 door

    I have the same car with the same dent on the same door. Use a hammer and dollly to get the edge straight. You will need to keep the door on the car for this. Check by closing the door and seeing how it matches up to the contour of the rear 1/4 panel. Then get a stud welder and weld...

    Rear quarter window question .....

    I made my own using a plastic cutting board of the same thickness. Use a hole saw to cut out the roller, then chuck it into a drill using a grinding wheel attachment. Then I used a second drill with a small bit to cut the groove. Spin the 2 drills, and lay the side of the bit into your new...

    Rust!!!!!

    I would cut out the center and make your own patch. Don't get it too hot, take your time so it does not warp. When the center is done, do the outer portions if necessary. If you cut it all out in one piece and separate the roof and rear quarter, you may have some alignment issues between the...

    Windshield Glass

    I just had a new PPG windshield installed here on Long Island. A local glass guy came to the house and did the job for $200, parts & labor. The glass was really nice, very thick, as it should be. Not the thin stuff you find on the newer cars. You really should not have a problem...
