Looks great, man! I'm glad I subscribed to this dumpster fire in progress. Dare I ask what's holding that rear glass in? And I really wish I had access to TIG right now for aluminum stuff; I've been thinking about buying a new MIG that can accept one of the aluminum spool guns but I've never used one.

Got a cool idea off of a XJ guy on instagram that had a similar thing going on, had an old Ka-bar knife sitting around so put it in a handi emergency seatbelt cutter, and a good opportunity to show off some beastly forearm action lol

This turned out cool and clean, I plan on using this space for something I haven’t started yet but it’s going to it easier without the trim plastic in the way, some good old ford interior plugs holding the trim in place !

Stopped in the fabric store and just happened to find the perfect fleece material in the discount rack the just about matches the interior perfectly, turned out good and it’s going to be nice to finally have a headliner again !

Got one side done and ran out of material, luckily the fabric store still had a yard left so I can finish the other visor, and while I was at it I wanted to simplified the visor mirrors and delete the wires/lights and flip door, just my personal preference!

Wow okay so I never seen your build and I took the time to go through it all once I seen the headlight assembly mods and the sunroof. Nice job man you got some serious skills!
