Redoing a 74 conversion that could be street and/or track but for eventual sale.(i.e so its not really for me)
I am trying to decide if I want/need to replace floor tar. I have gotten both sides of this. One renowned restorer says it is a rust magnet......another says sound deadening is worthwhile. I am kind of falling in behind sound deadening although that is sales literature copy. How about a bit of guidance on this. Feel these cars are noisy enough without removing the tar insulation. What say ya'll ?? THX TOT |

Thanks guys....If you can think of a question, this site almost always can give you more info than you actually need. Amazing !
Ok now the final wrinkle....I was hoping to paint the stuff body color like the original tar but it looks like that is questionable and local Dynamat dealer said no....(Although I didn't get the sharpest knife in the drawer) Any of these products accept paint and look "right" ? Thanks all TOT |
