Default 81's interior is done

Well...the low milage 81 I picked up has had the drivetrain refreshed with new fluids and the engine bay cleaned up and detailed. (previous post) Now, thanks to a supporting vendors parts, the interior is done. Only thing left is the paint!

As it was...which wasn't terrible





Finished...
