Re: 1972 chev complete restore
 
Looks good! did you also use it on the inside of your doors? I've seen it go droopy when it is stuk to a side and the car gets hot standing in a summer sun.

Re: 1972 chev complete restore

Re: 1972 chev complete restore

I saw the actual proof on a '98 Chevy dually, where they installed it in the doors and it sagged. the truck was black though, but we don't get that much sun..

Re: 1972 chev complete restore
