Roof Deuce Restoration

Door sills are in incredible condition. The Roofs were obviously careful about not letting the seat belt buckle get closed in the door. Not a ding to be found (that is a tar like substance on the sills in the photos).



[/ QUOTE ]Real nice Sam. Now don't send those door sills out to be polished. Do it yourself and save your money to buy us dinner at the SCR.

ME buy YOUSE guys dinner! You know, Schonye ain't doing this resto for free. I asked him to, but I just got this look (from the 1st lady!)

[Schonyenko2]

Hell, I get that look from the 1st lady all the time.
And it's to late. I sent the sills out for polish.

That tar like substance is rubber compound from the good old McCreary Tire Factory where Earl worked once upon a time. By the way Sam and Schonye, the reverse lock out rod is still here and we also have the T-handle that we used on the shifter. It's actually the second one we bought since Earl stripped the threads on the first one.

[Schonyenko2]

We were just talking about ordering a rod for that. I guess if you want, you could send it out to us, or let me know quietly and we'll charge Sam double, and split it with you.

[Salvatore]

Charge Sam for the rod and you can sell it to me for even more. I need one! SHHH don't tell him, he will never buy ribs in St.Louis.

[mockingbird812]

If you would Schonye, ask the sill polishers to put all that rubber compound in a little jar and mark it: "McCreary Tire Co., Indiana, PA".


Linda - don't you be listenin' to these out-of-town boys. They are just crazy-loco !

Looks like the American entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well in Donahue IA!

These slapper bars have a cool back story to them which I'll cover later on. Schonye did a great job on their restoration. They are pretty unique for Novas with rear sway bars in that they accommodate the sway bar instead of requiring it to be removed....
