Re: [A/S] New to this...some basics please...



I have never heard such rubbish.  The Argosy, including three I have had,
are all metal caps.  They are steel.  It is not unusual for the front
capt to have paint problems after a number of years, particularly if the
paint finish has not been taken care of (i.e. washed and waxed annually).
In the early '70's I don't believe they had any plastics or fiberglass
that could economically or structurally  adapted for such usage.
