Some pics so far:- s88.photobucket.com/albums/k163/johnwp5bcoupe/?sc=1&multi=1&addtype=local&media=imageWe "Plod" on the nice bit now the interior the head lining is not a easy job the frame must be pinched 1/4" smaller than the measurement between the center pillars, I used a string and bracket puller if you don't when you put the frame back in the car you get sags! I found out but trial and error! as the material is cotton backed I didn't but if you do you can use steam to shrink it I have been told the material is original

Just noticed thanks Andy the hardest work is what you don't see! and that is the satisfaction doing your own restoration knowing what and how things have been done
