Ok shes riding around and all that, But before she goes into the car roster we have to do some internal work.

Next few days we will be stripping the interior to:

Fix the gaps in the door seals

Put in the new door trim (mine are broken) (I thank these 2 task to Mr. Haro)

Clean the carpet GOOD and dry it, Left it in the rain this morning and the f***ing carpets wet. I could put pressure on the carpet and a puddle formed around my hand.

Detail the seats

Drop the headliner and find out if the sunroof (or the drain hoses) is causing my water leak trouble.

Rewire the Amp/Sub wires to conceal them better.

Dry/Clean/Seal the Trunk.

unbolt and nudge the fenders roughly 1-2mm away from the doors so they stop catching the door.

Anything else I can think of while the car is in 30 pieces .

And if all goes well she will be cruising legally 2 Wednesdays from now!

So far not much has been done. (darn sister bought a pool and had me help level the ground and install it. Then jump in for a swim )

So far:

A and C pillars are off
Backseat is off
Door seals are off
Front Seats are 1/2 way off.
Just to note:
SOAKED padding under the back seat
Possibly MOLD on the back seat cushion (where your bum goes) on the leather, not the foam padding under it.
Trunk was soaked.
Somehow the CAI got disconnected from the TB. quickly fixed that.
The floor pan looked very clean, just some dirt, rust is MINIMAL at best.

Called it a night due to darkness, dead battery (charging right now) and barbeque!

She be ripped out finally tomorrow
