Looks great lets see all your hard work on the interior! You will love the cobras I put them on my car last year. What a difference some new rubber makes!

OK....but the interior is not done yet - only enough that I set a seat in it to drive it.... What I got done was I got the drivers side dash in with my led gauge lights, top dash, steering collum (old wheel on it for the moment - I have a new leather wheel waiting to go on!) - but it is "drive-able"....a major milestone in this HUGE project!
Bear in mind it looked like this not long ago...!
I have:
Leather Fiero buckets for it
New door panels
New stereo
New carpet
New inner and outter door handles
New mirrors
New misc panels
New steering wheel
Updated the tach to a '75 electronic
LED lights mentioned before from Inclusive Lighting Co.
I layered it in Dynamat
And a TON of other goodies....
But at least it's a "car" again!

Looking real good. You earned the credit in cleaning up a common find when peeling away years of "who knows what happened" since the car was shipped.
Congrats on the work and good luck, getting it finished for some serious spring and summer cruisin'.
