progress was on the back burner... now that im out of a job i have time lol

currently have panels wrapped, seats are pending. pedals from luxis, razo (wood grain) shift ****, levoc ebrake cover and some carmate stuff (woodgrain cup holders/etc). Hopefully i can pick up some nrg hub & quick release as i have a nardi steering wheel waiting to be slapped on. got the wise sport style spoiler, sunroof and window wind deflectors and 2 old L7 solobarics waiting to be thumped again

Sold the wheels to a friend, got work ryvers being refinished which will be rolling on some falkens.

things that need to be done is mainly body work and paint. re tint the windows and a major tune up. Oh and 97 fog lights

Working on the cluster lighting at the moment (needles specifically).

No updated picture as it hasnt changed much. Just know the interior is fully stripped. im kinda annoyed as i broke a panel from taking off the sunroof so the sliding cover could get wrapped >_>

Oh, and i was dumb thinking a jap center console would fit our usdm models... stupid ebrake! xD Its sitting in my garage picking up dust... im thinking about fitting the compartment into the rear seat center arm rest, though i think it may be too long.

If yall wondering what color paint, im thinking a deep cherry color.

As of when it will be done, im trying for nisei again... :ninja:

i must say, Juan01 you were my inspiration. Thanks!
