*saved*
If you see that metal strip, that was the driver side a pillar.. clear to see that it was corroded and wrecked due to water leak.
I've also had a leak behind the passenger side seat.
I'll be recarpeting, pulling all the OEM wire harness that I don't need for lights and shit.
I'm debating pulling the heater system. What do you guys think? I could install a small electric hot-rod version. _________________ [This Space For Rent] |

*Saving this one too*
Also, I will be yanking the motor and fitting a new exhaust manifold, turbo, and exhaust system, engine bay repaint and partial wire tuck.
Debating about dutch boy painting the whole thing since I probably wont have it painted next year either. _________________ [This Space For Rent] |

Can't! I doubt my landlord would let me haha.. However, long sleeves, stocking cap and a turbo heater should do the trick. _________________ [This Space For Rent] |
