Well I haven't made as much progress as I would have liked due to work pressures and have now given up on any thoughts of getting my Vixen roadworthy for the summer. On a more positive note I have this afternoon fitted the windscreen, which for me was a very very scary job! Yet to fit the locking strip and will tackle that job tomorrow. I am also half way through fitting the headlining and thought I would pop the screen in to lock in the front of the lining. took much longer than I thought it would and my fingers are very sore!
Moto sent me a sample of the lining he used (thanks Steve) and I'm very pleased with the quality of the material. My daughter sowed the pockets into the lining to take the supports - bless her! I think sowing straight lines in the vinyl was harder than we both thought it would be. There are a few little wrinkles to pull out to the side and back but I think it will be ok. I won't get a job at Crew trimmimg out Bentleys but I quite like the home-made feel!
