    -Replaced cracked taillight lenses L & R with Euro style (Yellow turn)
    -Finished refacing the dash surface with new black leather for: glove box, radio and heat/air distribution levers. Wow ... learned a lot with this one.

    I finally finished my front suspension pan! This job is a lot of work but rewarding when it is done right. This was a "rust free" Arizona chassis but it just goes to prove that there can be corrosion lurking in some of the hidden spots. No areas were rusted through and you could tap with a hammer/screw driver and it was reasonably solid but I did not feel comfortable with the appearance. Also, when the car was media blasted, they failed to remove all the media from the front pan so it was holding moisture

    Your attention to this sort of rust is admirable. I know of a dealer (or two) that likes to use the "Schutz-Undercoat-Black Paint-Douche Process".

    Keep on keepin' on!

    Dropped my car off at my friends to get the motor and trans installed as well as a front fender oil cooler and the front and rear glass. Here it is in the driveway. Stance is all jacked up because i had to get it on the trailer without hitting anything.

    I didn't do anything at all, but someone else did!

    David Bouzaglou, manager de TRE Motorsports, send me pics from my new seats! Wonderful copies of the Recaro RSR, with the famous perlon/nylon material, which will fit perfectly my lovely Trudi…
