My car is on its way home! It still needs a lot of work but at least it's out of paint shop hell.

That's purdy. Try not to drive it into a loading dock. :p

Funny story (or maybe not so funny), when I drove into the office today there was a car that drove over the curb and into the loading dock. Not quite like I did but it was high centered on the curb with the front wheels hanging over the wall. The old guy had dementia and didn't even know his name.

Is the car not buffed yet?

It's buffed. The paint is really shiny. May not show up well in the pics.

Sad panda face. Being elderly for most people is no goddamn fun at all. I'm very grateful my dad (86) despite being blind and getting weak, is chipper, happy, and still alert. His memory is scary accurate and detailed. When I visit some times to his assisted living facility, I look around and shudder.

3 days after I got the car home, my dad died. So I haven't touched it until today. Today I tore out the seats, the carpet, the upper console, sun visors, and headliner. Next, I'll install the new headliner so I can install the windshield and back glass. Anyone have any tips for me? Never done a headliner before.

Also, I couldn't resist putting something on the car so I put on the scripts on one side. I have officially begun the restoration!

I can't remember, is the headliner wire backed, or a board?
