Default Interior paint project.

I decided to follow 1JZPWRD's thread on interior removal to repaint my wood trim, but decided to start changing my interior over to black.

Interior tear-down was a slight pain going in blind. I picked up momentum until
I hit the trim, which turns out to have 10mm nuts on the backside instead of
wingnuts like pre 97 years. After a quick trip to the hardware store I managed
to get the interior back in with minimal effort. The wingnuts i bought for 87 cents a piece use an m6x1.0 thread and were all too much easier to get in that the
original bolts.

Interior out and put back in after paint.

I used Valspar anti rust and corrosion protection in black with a cheap wheel coat from advance auto. The trim was done using Amaco rub 'n buff using the method in the link >www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wt70alyJsyQ posted by NME Props.

The paint is holding up fine, the wheel coat is a clear acrylic so the paint won't be damaged. Adds a nice glossy finish too.

I'm planning on tackling some more of the interior tomorrow, just not sure what i want to do.. Maybe center console? Either way I'll keep everyone updated with pics.

im tired of trying to sell my SC to low ballers and people who don't appreciate it

im actually considering a total top to bottom restoration makeover as a hobby/project

is there any detailed threads on how to take apart the interior?

Im thinking of a suede /leather theme
