    New Shop Space

    Hi Dan, I would like to see some pictures when it is done. Our lift is a used Direct Lift. A good friend was moving his shop and had two lifts to store cars on. He has room for one in his new place so he gave me one of them. The lift was free but the addition cost $$$. Merry Christmas to you...

    New Shop Space

    I have wanted a lift in the shop for years, as most of you know it does not get any easier getting up and down as you get older.

    1968 Fiberglass GT / CS Parts question

    If you buy reproductions plan on a lot of rework to make them fit. Originals or NOS are worth the price to me.

    . Fall drive

    Yesterday we drove our 68 HCS 400+ miles on a trip to check on a possible new project. It was a sunny day with temps in the 50s. As I was driving I thought there could not be to many of these days left in Nebraska. With all of the MCA shows canceled in 2020 it was great to get out and put a few...

    Yes binder clips or clothes pins will work to stretch it in. I use a hair dryer to carefully heat and restretch till most of the wrinkles are gone. I use brush able contact glue. Be sure to put old screws in the holes like sun visors so you can find the hole once the headliner is in place. Also...
