    Okay I looked around on the inside of the car pulled the dynomat back and in the rear of the car I can see the "lip" it has oval and round holes in it right? if this is what I am looking for it is there on the back then they have a 90 degree piece of metal ontop of it that is screwed to the wood on the back. now on the sides I don't see this lip anywhere the sides of the car just have a 90 degree bend in them where they attatch to the wood I guess that is correct? since on the sides the vinyl top would be fether down right? well the panels of the roof now are welded just on the outside edge of the side wood rails... so is this where I need to cut on the sides? I am also amazed with what can be done with a hammer and dolly, the top edge of the body of the car felt like it was in a major hail storm after a little while of knocking around from the inside and out it is almost smooth wow! there was also a small dent on the back of the car I pulled the dynamat back but the dolly on the outside reached in and gave it a few taps and wow almost perfect ... this is beging to be more and more fun each time!

    thanks,
    simon
