You are getting close. I have never installed a windshield with the dash pad in place. Wonder if it will be removed to install the windshield?

You right getting closed to the end ; )


The painter is passing by today to install the windshield, that is the reason I have not pick up the car, the guy that did the interior done it before he will help the painter :D

This past weekend I finally clean up the wheels
Part bin is finally getting smaller, maybe total of 15 parts left to clean and install
Bumpers will be last I guess

Hello everyone

Today I took the 356 out for a short drive and notice cold coming in from the middle front part of the top.

After getting home I open the top and notice when they redo the top they made a wood shim and put under the middle hatch on the top part. I remove the middle hatch and remove the wood shim . But now the hatch will not close all the way and I notice the rubber part on the top is not sealing correctly only left and right side is.

I am going to call the person that redid the top and the interior of the car but I was wondering if anyone had same problem

Normally the bows would be separate. Your car looks fantastic by the way!
