What is Michael Sadlon up to?
He's making new fiberglass parts? Wonder if he ever heard of us?

I don't do Facebook but Lorraine mentioned it to me today from Facebook..

He's making parts for Sirum. I think he'll be a boon to the brotherhood.

Looking forward to the new fiberglass front headliner! I wonder if he will
ever get to replacement rears?

You said," I think he'll be a boon to the brotherhood."

If you were in Canada, I'd guess you were either an electrician or a Mason
!

Hey, I'm here. I read here daily, and only post when I can give positive insight.

I have tried on several occasions to set up an account on the photo site with no luck. So I find it a little difficult to post pictures here,

It's real easy on Facebook. If you here would like notice of new parts available, I can do that.

The front cap will go to Sirums soon for test fitting.

The new rear cap some Day!

Mike was at gm convention in Elkhart as a vendor. Some of you probably already talked with him.

I tried again this morning to register on the photo site.

When the email comes up to activate, and I copy and paste it in, it says, Sorry, but we are unable to verify this account.

Thoughts

Well. it did let me into the site just now.

So I am in , put I still can't seem to figure out how to add picture.

My screen doesn't look like the one in the tutorial.

Thanks for helping him Billy.

I am definitely not an expert at using that site so I did not volunteer to help him.

Mike,

Just curiosity, since I'm unlikely to do more mods to my GMC: Do you plan
to do design changes, either as routine or by special requests? The
question is stimulated by the thought when I saw your cockpit headliner:
"I'll bet lots of folks would like to have an overhead console molded into
the forward center of that -- whether they ever used it or not."

Ken H.

That's a start! :-)
Be sure to create an album to hold the photos. That way they won't be
thrown in with all the other photos. See:
http://www.gmcmhphotos.com/photos/help.html

When sharing the URL for your album or photo, just copy it from the address
bar in your browser.
Here's your photos in the gallery:

Great looking items!

Good morning Ken.
Jeff and I have talked about this very thing. The market is so small and Making a custom part(molded) takes so much time.

As of the prototypes, I have them just about the same thickness and flex as the originals.

My plan is, if these work out OK, I will build a part with additional glass in the center area to allow for screwing things into it. These parts are already stronger that the originals.
