Bada-bing, bada-boom we got some new pics! About 60% done with the interior detail, and about 75% done the exterior. Today was a vac and a wash, and I went ahead and Nano'd the hood. The rear mats are from my 94 Olds wagon! The only thing I have left from her, besided the emblems. Still can't get over how much I love the etched Ford logo on the tails. By far my favorite mod.


She's gettin there! Hopefully I'll be done in time for the York meet.

That's a big 10-4 Charlie Horse Roger Dee, good buddy!

Car looks good.....I'm assuming that you got rid of the clutter inside...

The street scene reminds me of Gettysburg-Biglerville-Fairfield area.......

Thanks. Rid of most of it, the rest is in the vast cavernous trunk. I'm in the little town of Dallastown. Less than a half hour from Md line.

Oh, OK...I know where that is. You're in PA north of Baltimore. I was guessing north of Emmitsburg.

Thanks! The back seats are rarely ever sat in, so it's basically a matter of a wipedown with a magic eraser LOL.

Well alright then :lol:


Still not 100% it will work, but if a couple small modifications is all it takes to get it in, then so be it!

I don't see how that would set in with the current tunnel panel. Besides, gonna need that console when I get around to a certain other mod..................... :ph34r:




EDIT: I am considering going all black anyway, and two toning the interior. :D

i noticed you have g4.5 interior door handles... i may have missed it if you posted about that. did you have to take the panel off to get those in? i really want some of those in my piece.

other wise. nice clean up! bout time to "hide" that CB wire soon eh? lol.

oh, and i also like where you place the "taurus" on the back. real nice. what sort of adhesive did you use for that?

Thanks!

The handles are what came with the car. As far as I know, you need to remove the door panel and have access to a riveter to replace the handle assembly. I haven't done it myself. The CB wire will be hidden along with this next mod, and I used regular thin 3M double sided tape for the emblems. The kind that is I think .035 or .045.
