Both show 14 years of ware and tare. I'm restoring my '98 SS back to like new condition. Should I do the interior first or the exterior?? It's one or the other 'till next the following year.

Interior, get interior done first. There is still a good amount of nice interior pieces out there for stock replacements if you hit the sale section on here. But how much longer will that last? You can always take care of exterior stuff. I have a feeling over the next few years finding stock interior pieces that are in mint condition is gonna become a needle in a haystack event. I could be wrong but these cars are getting old & there arent any companies making new interior panels as replacements.

What exactly are your goals for the exterior/interior? I know you used the term "restore", but do you intend on literally restoring it? Or upgrading it? In other words, stock parts? Or aftermarket?

Interior first...mint or sometimes even "very good" condition parts arent just the easiest thing to find and as years go by they will get harder. Exterior second because paint will always be around. LOL
