[<62-65-mail-list-club@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Glad you got the glass safely. AMD must have quite some insurance coverage. LOL

Thanks for the update. You are making good progress!

dense foam on each side - 3" thick egg-crate shaped foam top/bottom - extra cardboard with 2" thick x 3" wide strips 
of soft egg-crate shaped foam from and back.  Still makes you wonder what AMD's fatality rate must be for shipping 
glass.......

bed liner coating.  It's a urethane you mix and shoot.  Turned out real well on the rear seat/cargo area metal, when I 
tried it out a couple years ago.  Has held up well too.  It will help with sound deadening/heat/undercoating at a 
reasonable cost and is easy to apply.  Underneath I may use it too, prior to undercoating the new sheet metal.

them off and run with the bed coating if it turns out as good.
