(Like Generous Motors did.) Trim fit RIGHT IN THE CABIN was lousy. I knew they were designed pretty well, mechanically, and the lines were beautiful, but even then, the guys that were buying new ones were plugging the drain holes in the rocker panels, filling them up with Rustoleum primer, and driving around for a couple of days before they drained the primer back out. Come to think of it, maybe I'd better buy some for my Saratoga! Joe Savard, Lake Orion, MI |
