Thanks Sarah,let's hope for a early delivery then i can crack on with fitting the headliner, Not done to much apart from paint all the internal body parts i had removed plus a few more today found ?12.76 in ash try and under rear seats result, removed old headliner from board ready and removed the old glue/black resin ready for new T Top seals to go in, Have had a quoted to get door panels done good price so that's next with the wheels to be refurbed,
Sounds promising. Is it easy to fit?

Bit of an update, repainted front metal work as didn't like the finsih, recovered the head lining with new foam and perforated head lining material just have to fit back into car now,ordered too much foam so have loads spare now
Good use of crocodile clips, however not so good use of such a nice Saleen. Good to see the Trans-am is progressing. Looks like its all coming together well. Is there a lot left?

Well in between the feking rain managed to get the wheels on the car today,
The wheels really suit it, nice work there. Its coming along really well. i think you may have the wrong springs front and back, its sitting a bit high, did you borrow them off the other Trans-Am or did he swap them when you weren't looking?

Well managed to get rear parcel shelf all sorted with new foam and Linning and fitted,
Looking great, the Saleen is still coming in handy. I suppose it won't be long until you get the new Saleen.
You are getting very good at applying the foam and lining. If you car passing my house, feel free to drop in for a cuppa and see what you think of the interior roof in the Camaro.
