Well, they were on eBay in like 2015/16 and it was some warehouse clear out deal. Of course I have certain key words I search everyday for deals and bam...They had a ton of sets for $400 shipped. I was like how much for 10 sets shipped. $300 a set and there you go.
I've got a t top clip, I was surprised to see the surface rust in the channels of the t top frame work, I guess I shouldn't have been surprised.
You're building it to last!!!
Exactly right. They love leaving uncoated metal in there and guess what happens every time.Trouble is: It's not just T-tops that are built that way. Likely, the braces in hardtops are the same.
Suddenly I am much more proud of the repair job I did on my floors (and I, with the help of Utoob, taught myself to weld)Well, tackling this debacle now. This is going to involve some rust repair and other crap. This isn’t rust from conditions. It’s rust from a poor repair. Just because you have a building and call your self a repair business doesn’t make people qualified to fix. Prime example.
Yep. Yuh wouldn’t believe the kind of half ass crap we see everyday in these cars it’s just unreal. And it seems like every single one is hiding something dumb. Unless somehow it was never messed with. I’m just glad the shop that had it for like 24 years was too lazy to even attempt to screw anything up. Just sitting there collecting dust was the best work they ever didSuddenly I am much more proud of the repair job I did on my floors (and I, with the help of Utoob, taught myself to weld)
Yea, surprised they didn’t just rivet it on.A little more caulk and sheet metal screws , once the carpets down good to go ! omg
In my car one of the previous owners had "repaired" part of the floor pan by taking a piece of sheet metal and fiber-glassing it under the carpet.Yea, surprised they didn’t just rivet it on.
Sounds like a legitimate repair to me.taking a piece of sheet metal and fiber-glassing it under the carpet.
Yep. That’s a good point. No excuses.I just have to say that it’s awesome to me that you do this work in a carport. Not some big fancy shop. Obviously you don’t paint the final coats there, but even so, just goes to show what can be done with the right skills and mindset.
