Spyder-Mite Update

The interior panels and carpet are mostly installed. These parts came with the car when I purchased it and were sourced by the previous owner from Moss Motors. The panels fit fairly well but the carpet needed a lot of trimming and shaping. If I were buying today I'd source from Bugeye Guys. I glued the carpet in except for the foot wells and transmission tunnel where I used velcro. Since this will be a Spyder version there will be no roll up windows or vent windows and the windshield willbe chopped two inches. The openings on the doors have been covered. Next week the dash comes out to complete the wiring and all new instruments from Speed Hut.

Headlight buckets and trim have been installed. Although everything has been installed properly, I'm not entirely satisfied with the gap between the trim rings and the body.
