It's been too long! I finally got some time to work on things. I prepared and primed all the parts to build the glove box on the passenger side of the instrument panel. I also prepped my custom cut instrument panel, plus I added the small round hole above the radio cut to install a turn and slip indicator in the standard small size instrument hole.
I installed the carpet in the cockpit forward of the seat longeron. I wished I had known the carpet goes in first! I had to remove the entire rudder pedal assembly, glue the carpet down, then re-install the pedals and the nose steering rods.... Oh well.
