WOW!!! Thanks for the props Big Dime. Its good to hear when people get my style and vision and its not just all up in my crazy little pea brain.

Been having hosting issues on pics so falling behind.

Lets give this a shot and see if it works...Ok, hosting on Imgur but its a pain in the rear so posting will definately slow down. Its something in the new phone I have that its uploading a huge file. So it takes resizing every photo before its posted up.

I am hoping that I can get the door panels back this week in time to install this weekend and have the car mostly buttoned up.

Not only did the color and material not match but I also had some sags and a small hole in the drivers side door. I am deleting the pocket and holes for the pocket and making room for some speakers in the future down there.

Started messing around with the trunk area and getting a nice flat floor to work on all the way across. I had previously cut out the driver side filler panel for the butt cheek and used the stock on on the passenger side but even after wetting, flattening and drying it started to sag badly after just a few days in the trunk. So I got to work on making a flat floor. New piece on the passenger side and a filler panel for the center of the floor. This piece is simply just to make the carpet lay flat and give me a nice foundation to build some audio stuff in later down the road.

Waiting on 2 turn signal lenses, a hood release cable, door panels and trunk carpet, seatbelts and a car trailer and Ill be good to go!!!

I need to be loaded up in the trailer next Thursday. My route takes me to Sacramento and Davis on Friday, hang with some friends down there, Volvo show on Sunday in Davis, then meander from there to Vegas the following week for LS Fest.

So if anyone wants to get together and shoot the **** for dinner that week in central to SOCAL hit me up =)
