Yep, it's like the best day ever when you can drive it out of the shop for the first time! Especially after 4 years of thrashing on it......

Four years, yes, but you had some bumps in the road. As I recall, a bit of construction too. Most people could spent a lifetime and not get the results you achieve.[cl

You can say that again ZZ, that "first time" rush is the best feeling ever.
Looks great out in the fresh air!

Before you look too close, bear in mind that this is just a practice headliner made from sacrificial material I had handy! I really need to pay attention to sewing a straight line, following my guide lines, and it shows in the wiggly seams, also have to work harder at pulling it tight before stapling to get out the wrinkles. But that's what practice is for......... Made a work table to fit up to the sewing machine and spent a couple hours just figuring out how to work the machine, it's all new to me. Still, I've got the basic theory figured out, just have to improve the execution

If that's practice, you can practice on my stuff anytime you want

[cl[cl Looks good ZZ don't think you're going to have any problems
