It is in bad shape but he took the rivets out of it and layed it out flat and had it on the shelf under the side curtains. There was no bottom but the top part is in good shape. I also looked at the lifter locks on his car and they are tight in the slots. No slop at all. All 8 were snug like that. Looks like I have work to do on mine! 28 Chevy LO Capitol 1 ton, 28 National 2 dr coach, 71 Chevy Custom Camper 3/4 ton. Also 23 Oldsmobile Economy truck and a 24 Olds sport touring.
