splittychick - November 1st, 2005 at 05:38 AM

We're attemping to put the side windows in today.The seats are at the trimmers aka Brad & then it will be dependent on the canvas for the poptop.If she is ready i think it will be right down to the line.When i say ready she will be regeod but only have front seats in her.....the rest of the interior will have to wait.:crazy:
