Default WHY IS IT?

When your really want to drive the car on a nice day are you in the midst of a project that prevents you from driving it?

I have my sunroof out and apart for repairs and regreasing, and my entire roof lining in a million peices......and now its sunny out and 70 degrees??? Why why why...?

Drive it anyway? It's Sunny.

I left the house at Sunny & 43 degrees this morning, top down. Just go for it - life's too short.

Good luck getting the project done though.

I have had the same problem. I like working on the car, but I like driving it more. I did not want to have the car down at all this summer, so I made a promise to myself to save all the projects for this winter, and drive the car all summer. I was questioning that logic when it was 100 degrees and my AC does not work. I really wanted to tear it apart to fix the AC, but I kept my word to myself, and had a great time driving it all summer. Now, with winter aproaching, there are a few things that need fixin....

What happened to the headliner?
Was there an explosion?

Headliner disintegrated in my hand when I went o pull zipper.....went i go to the end..it ripped covering me in 26 yr old foam...the rest was a fit of rage which resulted in the removal of the headliner material.... and two trips to the bathroom for eyewash... I know have to vacuum interior and wash seats.

Man, That sucks.
Headliner replacement requires the removal of the rear & front screens, the door seals and the rear quarter windows. Oh and you need about 40 of theose small 'bulldog' clips and glue!

Do it in Alcantara......................
