Dan,
Can you walk on the 1/4" tempered glass?
More importantly, could a fat bugger like me walk on it (265lb)?
For those of you that want to see what Dan & Teri did:

You are right Emery. I can laugh now but it was no laughing matter then, either time. First thing I did was have Teri find me the
Black List and we called Steve Ferguson.
The glass is 1/4 inch tempered glass. About 24x24 inches. Wally did his before I did. This glass thing is not for everyone but it
sure eases my mind to be able to see that engine and frontend. Anything is leaking you will see it, if you have a wife like mine. I
tend to forget to look, not Teri. :d I watch gauges on the dash.
Oh man, life in an old GMC is so much fun, breakdowns or not. We have done about 45,000 miles since 06, and have "set" for the last
two, except for the conventions. Preventive maintenance will prevent most tow truck calls. I think that is what the survey is for.
Sorry if I got too far off topic.
Dan
