It doesn't hurt the machine at all! Also, I resewed my own divider curtains in our Ambassador and used all the old materials, except the rods. I actually made the curtains double-sided, so it was quite thick and didn't need the extra rusty rods in there. I did use the rod on the wall and the handle. It worked really slick.

I'm glad to see you tackled the fanfold door. I was just looking at a few loose threads on the one in my '63 GT. We are having Tammy (Silverthreads) make some new curtains and it occurred to me that the fanfold door could be re-made using the existing rods and hardware incorporating the same material as the curtains. Sounds like a good winter project...thanks for the inspiration. Steve Tim,
