Re: just got a 87 34v...help!!!

Agreed. Sorry I was tired last night. Being away due 2 work really hurt my ability to complete repairs as my time is spent working or other issues with my disabled wife.

I still love Avion and don't plan on anything else.

Re: Vent Lid - 87 34V - Making from Fiberglass

So I decided that from the measurement on the original vent (1-1/8" deep) to go with this: American Metalcraft SQ1610-16” x 16” Square Pizza Pan (1" deep) Found on Amazon. After taxes $32. I didn't want to go with 2" as we don't have measurements on the top to make sure it'd close cor...

Re: Vent Lid - 87 34V - Making from Fiberglass

I'm still stunned over the SIMPLICITY of the baking pan. One thing about it, it'll never get hot enough to hurt it!!! Jeff, after I read your post I called my stepfather. He told me he had been working on the fiberglass mold and it broke into so many pieces he had just chunked it in the trash. When ...

Re: Ordered new "operators" for windows

Yeah, we're in the process of having to change 2-3 windows out. Operators are totally shot. HOWEVER, one of the big things a tech told me was to spray EVERYTHING before even trying to see if they work. I happen to be in Lowe's and seen a can of Garage Door Lubricant (GDL). I can't BEGIN to tell you ...
