i think maybe you should do a WWII style japanese flag on the roof. that’d really show the jews what’s up.

sigh. The headliner didn’t come out as well as i had hoped, there are a few wrinkles in it. ☹

It was nearly impossible to get the the fabric up there without it wrinkling… Had there been a removable headliner board, the would have made life much easier. I have 6 days to decide if i want to try it again, but i’m already 60 bucks in…

It’s not terrible, but it’s not perfect.

I think i have an idea to save the headliner, but i won’t post until it’s done…

I really have to get my seats mounted this week, as it goes to get the cage on saturday…

Ill have to check that out when I get to work. But it looks good.

Now, It would really come in handy if you’d knit some potholders for the house…
