NOS Vandervells vs modern Clevites

Maybe a dumb question, but do you all prefer the foil facing outside (towards sun) to reflect heat when you are putting roof insulation in above the headliner?

Yep, went through this last summer when I rebuilt my entire suspension. Different parts. Some of the rear bushings may be the same, but I can’t recall off the top of my head.

That sounds good, I will definitely send you a PM. I’m not opposed to keeping an electric seat. I’d need to source a new switch. Do you think a manual seat setup from a 66 Impala would fit?

Reviews on the Eastwood gun seem pretty good. Maybe I'll give it a try. 2 year warranty is a little more appealing as well. Or their Concours pro seems like a good price range gun as well.
