RE: IML: 1959 Experts



Title: Message
The lower section of the package shelf where the speaker is should be a "basket weave" type material.  There is no speaker cover, just the material that covers the lower shelf.  One of our list members from Canada has some of this fabric.  I bought it and it seems to be a good match for the original.

Hello
 
Well after almost two full years my '59 Lebaron FDHT is getting close to "completion".
The work remaining is to complete the reupholstering (including the trunk) followed by painting and the installation of the chrome.
Of course there is also items like the aerial which I am still pursuing, a few emblems and those sort of things that ensure one is never "there".
The car was taken to the upholstery shop on March 30 and, since everything has been purchased, the estimate to complete this phase was 2-3 weeks (translation: 4-6 weeks). The painting and chrome installation is "promised" to be completed in 2 weeks (history says this means 4 weeks). So by early June I expect to be "motoring".
I have a question related to the "package tray". My package tray has two levels to it and the car is equipped with rear A/C as well as a rear speaker. This means there is one intake vent and two discharge vents for the A/C and there is also the rear speaker mounted at the back. This is the question:  Is there a grille or ??? mounted on top of the speaker? It looks like something is missing.
It is impossible to determine from the status of the car when I bought it as the package tray had been previously "reupholstered" by apprenticeship blacksmiths.
Thanks for any help offered.
 
Mel
