    Is $2,500 to much?

    ..I paid close to a $1000.00 for Marchals to replace the originals that were on our CS. Original fiberglass has to be worth good $$$$$$. $2500.00 doesn't seem too bad. Dave

    Where to put it - the registry decal

    Neil, I've used different paints over the years without affecting the decal. The paint that I used on this one was plasti-kote 282 aluminum, aka Rebuilders cast finish. I just happened to have this one close by. It is not a real good job as you can see by the border, but I wanted to make sure...

    Where to put it - the registry decal

    Hi all!! I placed mine on the lower passenger side of windshield, but it was very difficult to see against the dark dash. I peeled the decal off with a razor blade and while it was still attached to the blade, I painted the back of the decal silver and reinstalled it on the windshield. It is...

    3-point seatbelt installation

    I am in the process of installing 3-point seat belts from "Retro Belt USA". I know that some of you have already installed 3-point belts in your CS's and I have a question re the anchor point for the retractor and belt end. I can use the roof anchor point for the shoulder belt, no problem, and...
