Fitting the hood

while we were fitting the profile, our trimmer was making our hood. we already had a rear half of an SVX hood. it included the tailgate flap and side windows but not the front, which covers the driver.

The trimmer sourced us the same Mohair material and mocked up one for us. he used an existing completed svx hood as a stencil. the advantage of us doing it in two parts means we can choose how to join the two parts. instread of stitching them, we chose to connect by zip and this allows to turn our landy into a sexy bikini top in the summer, which would only cover the driver.
