Installing roof and windshield.

We lowered the body onto 2X4's so it's easy to work on the top.  Alan and Dave checked for any repairs that needed to be done and then the chicken wire was installed.

Start by laying out the chicken wire and then tacking/stapling along one edge.

Continue tacking the other edges starting in the middle and working to the corners.  Pull the chicken wire as tight as you can.  We are using an electric stapler, a pneumatic stapler actually works better.

Trim excess chicken wire with tin snips or clipper.
