On my 69 deluxe, some of my original kick panels have the plastic covering pealing off about a quarter of the way down. Whats the best way to fix this? Is there something like a spray adhesive that will work for this?
Also, the sun roof seems to be stuck. It was stored for 15 years, in a garage, no rust, and I think it is some how frozen. I dont want to force it open, any suggestions?
While im at it, should I apply white grease to the track of the sliding cargo, it is hard to open due to lack of lube?

New kick panels are the way to go.

The cardboard ones eventually rot from condensation anyway. I hauled a set back here from England, but I'm sure that BudDepot or Ronnie sells them here in the US.

In the UK, they now sell them made of a stiff plastic which I would have preferred had they been available at the time.
