Did a trial run install of the hatch (without installing the new rubber seals) because "practice makes perfect?" Also...painted the area surrounding where the window moulding will go so I won't have to remove it to finish the job.

Painted the inside with the yellow, so double masking was involved.

As my window gasket is the original style with the locking bead, I had to form and tape it tightly around the glass then 3M glue the ends together. I've left it sitting this way for several days to help it hold it's shape (not sure when I'll have help to actually install it?)

Close-up of the super adhesive in the butt-end-joint...most of which won't been seen.

First time having the "surfboard" seats in with the new "woody-style" headliner...I love it when a plan comes together!
Most excellent dude!
I've been working on my Firebird and that has taken my free time away from the Burban. I guess I need to get some postable work done on the WMB
