uughghghghhghghggg....I need one of those Euro S50's...

I have 1 set up left. We do ship.

[catuned]

So for the most part the Headliner is done came out great!
I need to clean it up; vacuum and wipe it down but that's later.


Both of the side windows are done:


Glad I ordered all new seals, etc. But they are hard to install as they are super tight and new:


Rear Glass went in:




Another view of the headliner:


Side Trim going on:

[catuned]

Oh and all the glass got a light tint before being installed. I think it was 15% Performance 3M.
Looks dead on but will know for sure once the car has all it's glass in it and outside.

[Cabriolet]

that looks so good man. cant wait to see it finished in person.

I know that's for sure.. It's been more then a year since I started to do this thing.. Im looking forward to driving the car. And going to the shows, etc. It will not be a garage queen.

[Cabriolet]

Will you have it done by Ryan's BBQ?

[catuned]

No. Interior is getting re-done will take 3 more weeks before I get that.
The first set of seats I had got used up to finish another car.
Second set I got are not up to my standard of quality so I am not using those in this car.

So Im having a fully brand new interior done and that takes time.
Plus I will be out of town for Bfest East. Will be with Levent at the GPS booth along with Ethan 8380 Labs.

igor, what's the trick for getting the rear quarter windows back into the coupe without screwing up the paint or headliner??


regarding new seals... what's the trick for that too??

On the side windows are your solid like on this car or pop out?
And on the rear glass we laid the moldings out to get there shape and then rope them.

I have fixed rear windows but pretty much given up on reinstalling them because everytime I practice at the junkyard, I end up ruining the headliner or scratching up the paint.

so for the rear glass, you install the seal first with a rope wedge into it, then you lay the glass and pull the rope to bite over the glass (am I understanding it correctly?)

Correct.. The seal goes in then the rope and u set the glass in. And while tapping on the glass at the exact spot your pulling the rope up. You need 2 ppl honestly.

Why haven't I look through this thread yet when I spend 24/7 on here? That hennarot car is drool worthy and admittedly a big inspiration. It's basically what I want to make my car into.
