Looks like I'm stuck with the windshield, I think I can fix the rubber seal to make it look a lot better, If I can make it acceptable I'll leave it in.....If not....Out it comes and I'm back to flat 2 pc glass with a seam.........which is what I should have done in the first place......

Roger.....It's gonna be close....I going to the upholstry shop this afternoon to pick out the material and get it ordered, the car is going on thursday to get the front end aligned, Friday for the A.C. system, and next Monday to the Upholstry shop.......Depends how long it stays there........I would like to take it to the Dells for a trial run before the Power Tour.....Don't want to be like Charley and as the last lug nut is tightened, the key is being turned in the ignition for the start of the trip.......LOL

Ken

Don't know for sure but probably in the 1500 hour range (not counting body or paint)......But......If I would have done this at home you could easily double the hours....
