Even if you do the wiper pivot seal kit from Schumacher, don't be surprised when you still have water on the floor. Many times the wiper pivots get blamed for all the water coming into the interior and more often than not the primary contributor turns out to be something else. The real fix can...

A trick Russ Meeks taught me some 20+ years ago is to use 1/8" mahogany veneer for making up interior panels instead of some form of cardboard or fiberboard. It's easily cut to size, stable, and you can weatherproof it with a couple if coats of spar varnish, and it holds glue and staples well...

Be wary of using someone without referrals from satified customers and seeing examples of their work for yourself. Don't forget to ask them how they were treated and how they feel about the experience. I took a pair of buckets to a well established shop in the area thinking that because they...

I replaced the original bench in my Feather with a high back fold down arm rest bench out of a 72-3-4-5? junkyard Dart. After it being in there, going on three years now, I wouldn't replace it with buckets and console on a bet. Too damn comfortable leaning on that arm rest, and it doesn't...
