Almost done getting this thing the way I want it...spent about 3 hours today getting rid of the pin stripping and cleaning under the hood. Still needs a good clay bar and wax.












I freakin love this thing!!

Thanks for the compliments fellas...I'm liking the car. The wash didn't really last long. It rained here today. At least I got some pics to stare at every now and then lol.

LMAO! You said it bro...almost everytime too

Now I got the seats and center console out. Steam cleaned the carpet and treating the seats. It was so nasty under the console! I vacuumed out prolly 3-4 packs worth of cig butts because I noticed the ash tray bottom was broken. Let it all dry over night with the windows down in the garage. I'll take some pics after the kids soccer game

Got the inside done! Now i'm in the process of finding some floor mats. Heres some shots of the interior. I'm not very good at taking pics. I used my Bissel steam vac (twice) on all the carpet....it looked like coffee water when I poured it all out..I used the mequires leather conditioner on the seats. It made them all shiny and soft again. Then I used black majic for all the panels.











Bunch of loose change lol



removed the visors......they were SHOT!!!
