Automakers Facing Possible Production Delays Because Of ... Foam?

[Ducksworth]

Not that there isn't enough to speculate on in terms of production delays...
But I figured I'd toss another log on the fire.

WTF Dan... We don't need this kind of negativity.. Not on a Friday?

 

[Newbie]

I wouldn't be surprised if there is an industry-wide shutdown of automobile production just to allow suppliers to "catch up" for a month starting in early April 2021.

Always seems like this stuff creeps up on Fridays...ugh.

It's Friday. Can't handle more bad news. Here's to foam.

 

[Erock]

To hell with it... send the seats at a later date. I’ll sit on a milk crate in the meantime.

 

[SamG]

tbh we probably wont ever get our broncos

 

[Raptor.Tremor.Bronco]

No wonder. I replaced the seat foam in my raptor and they sent me 2 by mistake.

I met a guy next door to a job site maybe five years ago, he had a mostly restored 71 'Cuda, 440-6, 4-speed. Had sent his seats to be redone and they went into a black hole of unavailable parts. He owned the industrial type business next door and kept the car in one of his garages, so most every nice day at lunch, he started it, backed into his parking lot sitting on a milk crate. We got to bs'ing as time permitted while that iron block warmed up. (A stock cammed 440-6 makes the absolute perfect idle sound for a muscle car), then he would take a couple of 5 MPH runs up and down his lot before putting it away. Milk cartons will work, I'm just sayin' is all.

I propose we ban all avatars with ducks! Ducks hate foam!

We always kept a few of these around the garage because you can easily cut the legs down to fit whatever car they need to go into, perfect for when you're chopping roofs or have that pesky corvair with it's unusual seat rails.

PS: I'm referring to the chairs, not the child

But....its a cross between a duck and a bronco.
That has to count for something right?

 

[Bronco Beard]

I'll kneel, stand or buy a bean-bag chair don't care.
