Cooling & AC mock up

Got the radiator, fans & ac mocked up. Everything went right into place with a little massaging. Need to set in wheel house and reconfigure ac lines to fire wall.

Headliner

Headliner turned out well for a rookie. I had noticed factory stamping for courtesy lights where the sail panels install. Not sure if this was an option for the Catalina, possible just for Bonny or GP. They add a touch of class to the interior...

headliners are tricky and you are being modest, it looks great.
