    New headliner snugged into place and glued from the B pillars forward. Will begin final stretch and fit on the rear half tomorrow.

    It's been a little slow lately, but today things started to break loose. I finished the headliner last week, and so today I picked the Capri up from the glass shop with both front and rear glass back in place with new rubber and chrome lock strips. The car is finally weather tight for the first time in many years. In honor of the new all-weather capability, I quickly installed the new/restored period-correct wipers. I'm also working now on final gauge testing before reinstalling the dash pad.


    And more good news! The new seat covers arrived from France this afternoon. Will share more on these later, but initial impression is they are really nice.
