Hi Vernon,
 
The bed coating is Dupont do-it-yourself and I think it sucks.  To me 
it appears to be thick paint, nothing more.  Eventually I plan to take it

RE: RE: [Chevelle-List] shopping for conv. was: conv. tops

2002-12-31 Thread Dave Studly
this could be a somewhat timely thread for me.

I recently found my "dream" car in the auto-trader -- a '70 convertible with
4sp! (at an affordable price) I called and got an answering machine, but if
the car is still around, I'm pretty serious about picking it up if the major
stuff is in reasonable shape.

My question is this:  What kind of things need to be looked at differently
when shopping for a convertible?  I've owned my '70 hardtop for 13 years, so
I'm pretty familiar with the car in general.  Anything specific I should
look for?

Re: [Chevelle-List] Any NSRA members on the list?

2002-12-31 Thread HarKemAsso
Mike;
by the way- the MSRA is a great club for only 20.00 per year the news letter is 
fat-(monthly) has good info in it and i think the classifieds are worth the price 
alone. although you cant get into the "back to the 50's" car show for free (10,000 
cars last year!!!)like you can for some clubs (get into car shows for free) its still 
a great club, they do have other club sponsored events- and you could probably list 
your club in the news letter with your logo- there are alot of clubs in the newsletter 
from different states and members from different states too. If you have never been to 
"back to the 50's" it would be well worth your while- but only cars older than 66 (?) 
are allowed in the show- i don't have anything done that old yet myself.

The roof
is a structural part of the car. Convertibles have fully boxed frames to make
up for the rigidity that is lost when the roof is not there. If you cut the
roof off a hardtop, the frame will probably sag.
