Removed the interior

Pat and I removed most of the interior from the car over the weekend as well. It's necessary for a couple of reasons:

  1. With all the bodywork that needs done on the c-pillar and passenger side doors, the interior on that side would have to be removed
  2. Painting a car is a very dirty process with all the sanding, priming, and painting - removing the interior means that you preserve it rather than ruin it!

The interior is a completely custom-crafted thing -- all fabric is woolen broadcloth and most is screwed, nailed, or stapled to wooden bows on the seat frames, door frames, and body. It's amazingly labor-intensive.
