  4. Question about the leather seats: "NAPA" vs just "Leather"

    If I remember right, napa is not leather. It's like the hide of the great Nauga. When I managed a Caddy dealership , the lower priced CTS and others had a leatheret interior. it was just leather looking vinyl . Even the big Caddies just had real leather in the seat center, not on the bolster or...

    I worked for G.M. then. Back in 1983 I was hired to set up a new Ford dealership by the new owner that I knew. We did order at that time on a computer. I went back to the G.M. dealership I worked for in 1985 and they went computer. That dealer wasn't a D & D store. We could get what we wanted...
  18. Jeep is holding my truck on the shipping lot for no reason

    Don't have doubts. In the 70's and 80's orders were written , and sent to the manufacturer. Units that were getting built for a dealer customer went right in to be built. We received some units in as little as 6 weeks. Some express orders, we could see in 4 weeks. All depended on what and where...

  20. HELP! Mopar soft top won't shut properly

    I have not used mine yet, but when the salesman put it down and up a couple of times, he did it with one hand. He also said to use the two velcro straps to hold it down. He said driving at higher speeds and bumps is not good for the top without the straps. I'll find out this weekend coming.
