A wet weekend

We just had a wet weekend in Western Canada so I thought I would tackle those rattley doors on the TR6.
So I followed the instructions on the attached webpage (I believe first authored by Brian Kemp of the SCTOA and posted on this forum by ?)
https://tr6.danielsonfamily.org/WindowChannel.htm
It works a treat and I found the velcro at Walmart as suggested for about $8/meter.
I can actually wind the windows up and down properly now and when I close the doors there's just a nice thunk rather than the usual sound of a bucket of bolts being shaken.
The toughest part was snapping the bolt heads off 2 securing bolts and having to drill out the bolt remnants.
One more job done, 999 to go.
 
Good for you Graham. It is a nice sound,isn't it.
