Another 80's Shit Box

Id go cast... anytime you can make stuff look OG is nice.

That is my thought as well.

Ripped the old carpet out and found, rust free floors. Sadly, I wanted to keep the carpet but, it ripped in some very visble areas when I pulled it out.

Decided to get the interior started since I need to get an engine hoist to pull the motor out, to install the suspension stuff.

Got part of the sound deadening out with nothing more than a putty knife and my hands. Also, that is the insulation from the 1/4 glass area, so much insulation.

Insulation on the drivers side.

Hello, little guy.

No more insulation.

When I got the car, only one speaker worked. This may be why, both rears are like this and the cones do not move at all.

This had to be in the car since, it was built.

The new front end parts showed up today.

I need to figure out what color to have these coated in. Its between satin black and cast iron. I'm leaning towards cast iron since, that will look original.

Those spindles look familiar. Ha. I have an engine hoist you can borrow if needed. Doubt it fits in the focus though.

Cool project!

Thanks, if anything I'd grab one around my area to avoid that uncomfortable drive back with a hoist that, we both know would happen.

Also I have a new game now, it's called what electrical crap in the trunk can I throw away. The only things I need back there are the tail lights. The antenna, gas door release and trunk release can even go.

57mm turbo is mocked into place.
