Here we go on a 66 Compact DISCLAIMER; This thread is for entertainment purposes only and you should NOT try this at home. THAT won't buff out!  Here is a short video of when I brought it home... www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXbiMs6eAmw   |

Yee-haw! Not too awfully bad, really. I hope you're planning to keep the big skylight?

Yee-haw! Not too awfully bad, really. I hope you're planning to keep the big skylight? That hole was just barley too big for a 27X27 hole for a 26X26" roof vent/people escape hatch. I should have just installed and lap sealed the 3" difference on each side! Here comes a new roof! Check the video in the first post I just put up of when I brought it home. Nasty on the inside! |

Soup, I would love to check out your video. But it won't let me - says "Sorry, this video is private." Have never run into that onYoutube before...

ehh, a little duck tape, silicone, and a buffer will fix that right up, 30 minute job tops!

Okay - after viewing the video, I'm inspired! Have you seen the Airstream "toaster" trailers, with the big pieces of toast popping up out of the top? Well, how about a big pair of alert, upright wildcat ears, on top of your new Compact? The top of the cat's head could be where the hole is currently located...

Ewww! (I hope the "let it simmer" doesn't refer to the trailer contents...?) You're right, though, those light shades are pretty cool. Definitely seems to be worth saving.
