I don't mind canted quads, but this looks even better. You've got the proportions of those headlights and grill spot-on - looks like a well-thought out 60's custom, rather than something cobbled together after too many beers (at least IMHO).

Good job mate.

Cheers,

Get a hair dryer on to the creases, a bit of gentle heat should get rid of most of it.

That car looks realy cool. It has really come to life with a bit of colour on it. Headlinings give me the horrors so I feel your headlining pain, but can offer no help. My FB headlining was unstitched (original hard as a brick) and a motor trimmer up the road restiched it and fitted it for me. We both had high hopes, but it ended up pretty average. My advice, don't look up, ever, just straight ahead, and all will be cool.
