Sneek Peep of 4th Gen Int. etc

After Months of Mandatory OT I finally got some time off. Ahhhhh so I did a little work on the car.

Not that anyone cares but Made some progress on the Int.

This is just a mock up right now on dash/seats/door panels.
All has to come back out so I can dynomat the car. and re-dye all my plastics while I paint the Jambs and clearcoat the roll bar.

Once I finish off my composit Int for where the back seats go THEN they will be removed. Untill then why have it looking ****ty

Thats gonna be one kickass ride! One question. How is the Speedglass rear hatch glass gonna work with the vert trunk lid? Isn't the glass gonna be too long? Or is gonna be a custom mold?

Its a lexan type window. so If I do deside to do the vert deck lid I will just have to trim it to fit.

Either way I have to trim it to fit they come 1inch oversided. This way you trim it to your needs.

They make the Front,rear and sides for our cars.

Yeah, I check out the Speedglass site, they got some cool stuff.

About my question, I just figured that, since it isn't a flat piece of Lexan, just trimming it won't work because you would have to change the shape of the glass to work with the vert lid, not just the dimensions.

They are pre formed like factory glass. not Flat sheet.

They do sell Flat sheets also.

This is Similar to what it would be like with a deck lid. just the vert deck lid is longer.
