Mmmmm, new interior.

So my parents are making get the transmission rebuilt before I do anything else, going to try and find a place this week. Hopefully it won't cost more than $400. I am going to try and have the decals put on this week depending on if the car is in the shop or not.

I still have to put the drivers seat together which is why I didn't install it in the pictures.

From when I bought it to today. In case anyone is wondering, I am going to finish the floor later.

You have really gotten this car looking nice in a short time. Paint looks great and the interior looks really nice.

Thanks guys! I found a place nearby that will rebuild the transmission for $500 so I am having it done there tomorrow. I can't wait, I have never been able to go WOT without being afraid of the tranny exploding.

Where at? I am in Pearland Texas...

That's a good idea, maybe I should start looking around for a job at an interior shop.
