Pretty sure we saw him @ Hershey last Fall.

He delivered sills for our 42 67 about 2 years ago. Took about 9 months IIRC.

I'll look for his number.

Greg, try USA Parts in West Virginia. Previously they had anynumber of 75-76 door panels with the wood grain and the door pull still attached. I have not been there in a while as it is under new ownership but the new owner purchased the place lock stock and barrel.

SEM paints, interior, automotive exterior, plastic trim (especially) are great. A little more expensive than most, but worth the extra cost

SEM Interior Dyes. Mask off the panels or disassemble them and shoot the color with an HPLV or if you have lots of time, a high volume air brush. I did the entire interior of my '59 SDV using SEM Dyes and they never faded, discolored or wore off in the 7 years of ownership afterward.

I also refreshed the carpeting of a Firethorn Eldorado. It came out beautifully.

Looking at the grounds via Google Earth and Maps, this place has half the parking as Tennessee did. Maybe less rooms? I don't know. We'll have to see what the fees are come January. I may end up driving, instead of hauling it on a trailer.

Also, some travel time to get to any decent restaurants. Most are right at the Interstate exchange.
