Yea, pens, notecards = college kid. Thats why its wrecked! (I'm a college kid so no flaming!!). As far as the progress... uhhh........it looks really good, can't believe its the same car. You said you needa new wheel, does it have the 16's on it? Are you going with the base hood or WS6?

On my campus, Alpha Phi is a sorority, which later explains the tampon he found in there. So yea, looks like your car was driven by a sorority girl, which explains it's current condition

That tan and black interior looks good too
