Re: 1958 Saab story

I removed the old cardboard (probably asbestos) sounds deadening material and found a few surprises. Some really old matches and a mouse's nest

Re: 1958 Saab story

This is the same stuff I used on the roof of the Jeep. It kept oil canning at high speeds, and it fixed the issue, along with extra roof braces. It's called mat66.

After I finished putting everything back together, dad and I took it for a drive. It was loud and tinny before and conversations were muffled. Now I can have a normal conversation without shouting.
