    Thanks for your Flipper Tipps, i will check it all out. I think i need the Washers between the Roof and the Flipper on my 57 coupe. It do not close at the End, need to push it when the Doors are closed. So Thumbs up for your Video 👍

    Thanks for the flipper info. My hardtop was exactly as you described, when shut they wouldn’t close down. I spent a few hours on them today, doing as you suggested. Took out the four screws in between the ends and closed the door and they worked perfectly. I added some spacing material, replaced the screws and they now work as they should. Thanks again.

    Always wondered how these flippers worked, thanks for the explanation. Cool idea on the hose clamp covers, you come up with some pretty nice custom pieces.

    I like the hose clamp covers! Its supposed to be around 70 in N. Texas tomorrow maybe you will get some. I had Mikey from the forum do my flippers when I first took them off. I'm glad I did.

    Looking forward to your video on rebuilding those flippers, that will help me decide if I have them rebuilt for me or I do it myself. Thanks.

    Good info on the flippers. Funny they would use washers like that but I can see why. I'm going to see if I can get my flippers working right. There close but still have to push the back down when I get out of the car.

  • @RandysFiftySevenChevy

    My solution (for 40 years now) on my flippers was to reach out and pull the flipper closer to the car. It's something you never seem to stop and fix while having too much fun driving.

    The repro flippers have been discontinued because they, as you would say, sucked.
    Didn't the original qt. window seal have a cloth cover?
