Re: Wrek Rescue - aka The Notch
I have the one for the round shape opening. Take it, if it works or can be made to work, then we'll sort it out

Re: Wrek Rescue - aka The Notch
Ok, it took a while, but at last, another update!
Time for the glass to go in, got some rubbers from Pro Auto, BUT, before that can start, the rooflining needs to go in first..
So off we went to the upholsterer, to fit the rooflining and finish and trial fit the rest of the interior.
Rooflining in:
Then the soundproofing:
The carpets were also fitted but not fully glued down, so that they can be removed and fitted permanently after the assembly and windows are finished:
The front "boot" -
The rear "boot" -
Seats and door cards were also trial fitted to make sure they go in and have a decent fit.
Fortunately no problems there, as they were all made using the original doorcards as a template.
One or two small pieces of trim needs to be touched up and then the car goes back to Ferdi for final assembly.
To prevent any damage and tears later, I have brought all the removable bits of interior trim as well as the door cards home with me.
It goes nicely with another parcel I received this week from PE:
Ready for installation (hopefully soon! ):
