Mid-Atlantic Customs in Maryland has done 2 E body convertibles for me. They are excellent. Both took around 6 months to get through the shop. They can be found on facebook. Excellent body and paint work and mostly MOpars.
I used a J hook bolt that was a half inch longer for my last heater box install. I also have a tool box that is almost the same height of the heater box. So I stick that under the box for removal and install. So you are not trying to muscle it in and out.
Have you ever operated a manual top? The manual top pistons have springs in them. So one person can easily put the top up and down. I have both manual and a hydraulic top E-body convertibles. To me they are both easy to put up and down.
Dante’s is actually my favorite supplier. I’ve been buying from him for years. My interior is a mix of nice original pieces and the rest from Dante. I would definitely buy the interior kit from Dante if I needed everything. I will say that there has been a huge lead time in legendary interior...
I have an original 1970 Dana 60 for an E-body. If interested, I can message you a link to pictures which show the numbers and dates. It has 4:10 gears that are date appropriate but the numbers say it should be a 3:54 gear set.

Hi Mike, its Tom Finocchio from Horsham. Is it the Bahama yellow car that will be on display? I haven't seen the car in person yet and would love to check it out. Also, these are good vending spots if anybody is looking.
If you buy new, try to buy from a company that will deliver to carlisle for free. Dantes sells Legendary products and has done this for me in the past.
Most collectors would prefer to have one that isn't inflated. Because they sometimes don't return real close to the rim once deflated again. Is it a BF Goodrich tire?
