Blaine has been trying to sell the company for awhile now, I am not sure what his arrangement is with the new owners is.

Wisconsin isn't the friendly place for businesses, tax wise either, but probably better than California.

I checked and they were out of stock with everything I needed.

I hope they rebuild. Every review I saw regarding their products was good.

They replied to my email that they are not taking orders for out of stock items. They hope to have products by June.

I was told they had a limited stock of headliners left so thought I'd grab it while I could. Do hope they are back up and running at full capacity by June, I'd like to order the door and kick panels..

Certainly will, I feel lucky to be able to get the head liner, just hope the molds for the back panel and door panels weren't damaged in the fire. That information wasn't forwarded to me, just that I was on their list so I'm hopeful..

That is good news, they told me the 53-55 door panel molds were lost in the fire, I don't know about the 56. They should have used a little more "fire" on my headliner, both side clips fell off as soon as I tried installing it!

Thanks for this. I had one pop off on my headliner. I was going to try to "weld" it back on with a soldering iron but was worried about it showing. I'd rather use the ABS adhesive.
