    Don't let them drag you down.

    Amazing work you're cranking out. I was reminded how many parts are so scarce for these wagons and nomads when I watched DDspeedshop trying to piece his glass and trim together. The pieces you made look so nice. Will you have them chrome plated?

    The wiring on that 39 was definitely sketch! My fuse panel was near where you mounted his except mine was farther up and on the bottom of the firewall. That's a big heck no for me this go around. That was such a PITA to get to. Thanks for the tip on the earth magnet trick. I am going to try and remember that one. Do you have a best place you like to get them? McMaster?

    The hinge covers will be painted to match. We get the magnets from:

    www.appliedmagnets.com

    We use either the CUP-26, which is a 49 lb pull, or CUP-20, which is 26 lb pull. Much better pricing over McMaster on magnets.

    And you still did 20 years worth of amazing top quality work in half that time with some really neat side projects tossed in!

    Cosmo and I salute you and the crew.
