The rest of the day was spent on misc. wiring including the AC, convenience lights, stereo, and cutting the carpeting. At the end of the day it was cool to have the interior lights working with the jamb switches and playing King George off the ipod through the front speakers. :thumbsup:
Tomorrow I'll install the kicks for the final time, run all the amp wiring including rca cables, intall the carpet for good, shifter boot, radio, cut the holes in the firewall for the AC and heater hoses.

Well I decided that I have done enough work on my car lately. It's not finished but getting pretty damn close. When you garage looks like this, it's time to throw the seats back in and enjoy the fruits of your labor. I like driving it more than working on it anyway. I am a crew of one and this is the time to drive my car. It's comfy now and I have tunes. In the next few weeks I'll have a box built, carpet the trunk, and put in the back seat. My main goal was get it decent for the Sema fun.

Carpet is in, radio is in, all speaker wiring is routed, shifter boot, kick panels, rear shelf, all speakers except sub. Sticking point if drivers door panel. The door won't shut with it installed in the right spot for the windlace. Car is identical on both sides. Probably going to need to shave the panel. So may end up recovering both panels and then the rear panels will match so they aren't done.

I decided to clean up the garage and in the middle put the front spoiler on with one bolt. What do you think? With or without the spoiler?

I took the car out last night and today. What a huuuuuuge difference the second layer of insulation and carpet made. The floor doesn't get even warm and the old school astro venitlation is awesome. It's much quieter as well.


I will be at the Lateral G dinner and hopefully the road races. A shameless photo.

You will have to see the interior at the Lateral G party or when it's finished. Now for the best part, it's time to take the car out. 75, no wind, and not a cloud in the sky.

The car looks great. I say keep the front spoiler on. I still can't get over how large that rear lip is, simply awesome.

Damn that sucker is sharp! Definitely with the spoiler is my vote. :thumbsup:

BBC69Camaro 10-28-2008 08:22 PM

Keep the front spoiler :thumbsup:

Vegas69 10-28-2008 09:20 PM

Definitely going on :yes:

Spoiler looks good...it's a keeper.

I'll give you a call tomorrow. Sounds like we have the same plan for Saturday. I say we roll together in style. Looks to be my last weekend with the car so I'd like to make it count!!
