 I finished covering the over head console and the two halves of the head liner and fit them up into the car. They will have to come back out because I don't want to expose them to the bondo/ paint mess. Also I need to put some sound deadener on the bottom side of the roof skin. Besides checking them for fit I needed to install the head liner so that I could fabricate the rear door panels which over lap and capture the bottom of the head liner.




Since the chassis was a 4 door and I had to remove the "B" pillar hinge post I knew the stock carpet would have issues in that area. Luckily all I had to do was to make an inner threshold cover to deal with the transition. I made this out of .045 steel and it will be painted out with some trim black.




The last of the head scratching scratch fabrication jobs on this car is the rear door panel covering the seatbelt reel and the window motor. As with the front door panels I went at it piecemeal . Kind of sneaking up on it if you will . I have it mostly worked out. All I lack now is finishing.
