  1. I can tell you that a good auto fabric shop can help you. You should be able to snap out the panel by its self without taking the headliner out. The fabric is usually foam backed. Just clean off the old fabric and use some spray trim adhesive on the board and fabric and stick it together. It is contact cement in a spray can. If you need a supplier for the fabric, send me a pm and I can give you the name of the store I use.
  2. Derek, Do not know what happened to the truck that you are talking about, but I believe that it was a touring car that was converted to a truck. It does not have some of the markings and equipment of a truck like the steps, etc. Larry
  3. I agree with Pete, Chickasha was a good meet this year. Was able to pick up some parts for the fleet. :-)
  4. Just to let everyone know that talking to Mark & Dandy Dave was helpful and much appreciated. With the weather here in Michigan running in the single digits, have put off the axle problem till it gets warmer. :-) The pictures of the Flint parade bring back a great day....even thought I was following the chartruse lady
  5. Would like to give you a couple of things you might want to consider by answering your questions above. 1. The southern states bought the plants. It is estimated that in the state of Alabama, they spent over 1 BILLION dollars tax credits, infrastructure, land, training, etc..... to have the plants located there. And that is just Alabama. 2. You do not have to be in the union to get lifetime health care. Have you looked at the benefits of your local government officials, teachers, and not to mention the federal government members??? Compared to the auto industry, the auto workers benefits are average at best. I know, I just had my benefits deleted after age 65 and I retired from an auto company. 3. It is not just the domestic manufacturers in this quagmire. The US car sales rate a couple of years ago was about 17.5 million vehicles. At the rate it is going the US market seems to be headed to about 10.5 million vehicles. Toyota is eliminating truck production at one of their plants and stopped building the new Prius plant in Mississippi because of lack of demand. 4. You do not have all of the rules and regulations that are here in the US by the east and left coast. And as for no unions overseas, have you not heard of IG Metal in Deutschland??? 5. As for the price of cars in the Detroit metro market, is is a distortion that does not reflect reality. The majority of the car sales are employee purchases. Not the real automotive retail world.
  6. is it an International Harvester?
  7. Steve, I have a friend north of Phily that has a '24 4cyl roadster that he is working on and has a lot of information on it. If you send me a note, I will forward you his information and I am sure he will talk to you. Larry '15 C4 Truck '17 D35 Touring
  8. As for bringing a '15, I plan on bringing my C-4 Truck. Mayb we can drive around together Larry
  9. I have a '15 & 17 Buick 4 cylinder and it is not like the shell on the 15 truck or 17 car. The top is too rounded. Larry
  10. The two on the left look just like the generators that were on my Chev Corvairs from '60-64 <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
  11. Just ran across this thread and thought that you might like to know that I bought the truck in Ohio. Yes, I am enjoying it. I got it running and was able to drive it Aug'06. It is a 1915 C-4.
