By golly, I think you’re getting there. What are you going to do for a rear glass? After you get all the fiberglass work pretty much done I would sit it out in the sun for a couple of weeks and let the heat take care of any glass shrinkage and moving and help stabilize it.

Very nice work. It should look and function great when you get it painted.

Yes, good job. Looks very much like a craftsman has been at work 
Colour comment? I think I would forget the white; that works OK on an MGB, but if it was mine, I'd be tossing up between a colour match, or a matte black or satin black.
Cheers!

I cleaned up the inside of the top and sprayed a coat of primer.
Leaning toward using a perforated vinyl headliner with a foam lining, something like this

My $.02 color match with the car. Can't hardly beat BRG for a Cobra, my next one will be another BRG 289FIA. Cheers Tom.

More sanding
I misted it with black as a guide coat and blocked it. Could have been worse.
