"All the stock exhaust hangers on our Cadillacs have a shock absorbing design built into them at each location were they attach to the frame

"Thanks Tony, there is a clock spring in the window regulator that I think helps the window go up and keep it from crashing down when lowering it."

"Ohh ok. If I understand correctly The face of the top binding is sewn to the board and the carpet panel is then hinged down to glue and wrap the edges? Thanks for the help. "
"in that case, you sew the top binding on the board(over the carpet) face down first, then you do the edge binding with the top binding pulled up. Same way, sew it face down and then fold over."

Posted by Les Eastling on November 15, 2023 at 10:34am 1 Comment 0 Likes

There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…

its the pink wire on the color diagram i have. purple on passenger side.
Any how, yes it works and looks great, during the…
