Got question about progress on Randy's Caribbean . Will give a update currently working on power antennas sent out masts to be chromed missing one section on return. Also had to replace the thru bolts on one motor which is bigger job than I figured as the brush holder is on drive end of motor. Had to replace the nylon cord that drives the masts up and down. I used 1/8 weed wacker cord I have used it before on Olds power antennas with good results. The Olds antennas go up and down when ignition is turned on and off which is hard on the units. Packard will not be used that much. On my Clipper I seldom move them as if you use them not fully extended or retracted they stop at different heights which I don't care for that look.
Did locate a pair of chrome valve cover which I did not have. Little details cause me problems which always seem to take longer than I figure or plan.
