Re: Ready & Shaub's book.

It is self-published so the easiest way is just to call Reedy or Shaub and order it, they are both PAC members and listed in their Directory. It's more of a looseleaf binder than a book, I bought mine a couple of years ago and I believe I have gotten 3 sets of undated pages - makes it more like a subscription.

If you're unable to find a phone # for either, send me a PM.

Do you have any info on how to purchase this book? Packard Auto Co Tools and Jacks by reedy and Shaub? Thanks CJ

I used the Home Depot stuff in the floor of my 1947 also. I am not sure it is as good a Dynamat but it is a lot cheaper!

You can get an equivalent material at Home Depot or the like, adhesive foil backed duct insulation. Much cheaper and it's the same stuff (without the DynaMat logo)

John, I don't appreciate your characterization of me as "far right wing". If that is your idea of humor, please do not post to me again.

Here are some pics of the left quarter I've been working on. I need to replace the inner rockers also.

Here is a pic of the garage.

Thanks HH56

Yes the long selector rod with the big curve is the one !!

Many thanks to everyone, I have passed the news and photo on to my friend who in his turn too says "Thanks"

G'day all, Is the $30 per unit warranty cost the cost per unit warranty claim or per unit production? I would doubt if the warranty claims on the 55 exceeded 20% of production as evidenced by the results of the Owners Survey results. In any case I believe you will find that all manufacturers include a "warranty' charge in the purchase price. For example. I was involved in the introduction of the Mack truck ( EM6-285) into the Australian Army and the cost of warranty, included in the purchase price, was $1,500. I believe that every manufacturer includes a margin in the pricing to account for callbacks or warranties. It is a part of business. Best regards, Peter Toet
